A 15-year-old tigress, named Netravathi, at Pilikula Biological Park in Magaluru died on June 7.
According to Director of the park H. Jayaprakash Bhandary, Netravathi was injured in a fight with a six-year-old tiger, named Reva, on June 4. Reva tried to mate with Netravathi, but the tigress attacked the tiger. Staff of the zoo managed to separate the two animals.
Later, the veterinary and scientific officials at the zoo were treating the tigress for her injuries. She was consuming water and food. But on June 7, she collapsed suddenly, and died around 9.45 a.m.
