In a shocking incident, a mob comprising over 1,000 residents killed an adult male Royal Bengal Tiger in Assam's Golaghat district on Thursday, May 22, claiming it was responsible for the death of a man. The mob, armed with spears, iron rods, and machetes, not only killed the tiger but also dismembered its body, taking its legs, ears, skin, and teeth as gruesome souvenirs. This incident follows the earlier discovery of two tiger carcasses in Assam this year, one in Orang National Park and another in the Biswanath wildlife division.
