Mysuru: Two tigresses which were captured in Hediyala Forest Range and Antharasanthe Forest Range and undergoing treatment at Mysuru Zoo may not return to the wild.
The two wild cats are suffering from dental attrition (Dental attrition is a type of tooth wear caused by tooth-to-tooth contact, resulting in loss of tooth tissue, usually starting at the incisal or occlusal surfaces) and old age making them incapable of hunting animals which usually result in such wild cats entering human habitats looking for easy prey.
