Fake tiger skin found in the garbage

Ujjain : Crowd of onlookers gathered in Desai Nagar area when skin of a tiger was found in the garbage near community hall of the locality on Tuesday morning. Team of the Forest Department rushed at the spot and confiscated the tiger skin from the garbage. Officials of Forest Department looked perplexed to identify the skin and said that it could be of some other animal. Later, officers of Indore Forest Department came and took the skin along with them for the test in laboratory. Speculations were put on rest when skin was tested in the laboratory and was found fake in the test. Possibly, miscreants have painted black spots on the skin to give it a look of the skin of a tiger. When miscreants failed to sell the fake skin they discarded the skin in the garbage.
