Tiger flies 200km to Sariska
RAKHEE ROY TALUKDAR The tiger after it reached Sariska. Picture by Gopal Sunger Jaipur, June 28: The tiger has landed in Sariska at last. In an air force helicopter. After three long and barren years, Sariska regained its stripes as a tiger reserve today, carrying out what experts said was the world's first "scientifically planned' relocation of the big cat.
