After a massive 22-day-long operation by the forest department, tiger MDT23, believed to have been responsible for the deaths of two herders in Mudumalai Tiger Reserve (MTR) and Gudalur, was tranquilised by the forest department on Friday.
The tiger was seen along the Masinagudi to Theppakadu Road on Thursday night, and was tracked to Moyar and Singara on Friday morning.
