Petition Challenges Tiger Deaths Linked to Canine Distemper Virus

A petition has been submitted to the High Court challenging the official explanation for the deaths of tigers in Madhya Pradesh. The petition alleges that the tigers are dying due to the canine distemper virus, which, according to the petition, causes tigers to lose their predatory instincts and behave like cows. The petitioners are demanding a thorough investigation into the cause of the tiger deaths and appropriate measures to protect the remaining tigers in the region. The High Court has scheduled a hearing on the petition to examine the claims made by the petitioners and the response from the authorities.
