According to the reports, 16 tigers have died in Uttarakhand since January 2021. Here are some point-wise details about the deaths:

• Out of the 16 tigers, 14 died in the Corbett Tiger Reserve, while two died in the Rajaji Tiger Reserve.
• While some tigers died due to natural causes, such as old age and fights among themselves, some were suspected to have been poached. However, an investigation is still underway to confirm the cause of death.
• One of the tigers that died was a tigress who had given birth to four cubs. However, three of the cubs also died soon after.
• The increasing number of tiger deaths has raised concerns among environmentalists, who are calling for better protection measures for the big cats.
• Authorities have stepped up vigilance in the tiger reserves in the state, including increasing the number of patrolling teams and deploying drones to monitor the movement of the tigers.

These measures are expected to help safeguard the remaining tigers and prevent further deaths in the future.
