At her temporary new home the runaway tigress Zeenat seems to be perfectly alright, tamed down and her vital parameters were “good” and undergoing a series of medical examinations by the veterinary surgeons at the Alipore Zoological Garden.
It may take at least half-a-week for Zeenat to leave Alipore zoo hospital for Similipal, as was learnt today. Odisha’s chief wildlife warden P K Jha today hinted that a soft enclosure is being prepared for Zeenat now. He told reporters, “The tigress will be kept there for a longer period to ensure better adaptation in her new region.”
