Tiger kills two in Sundarbans

Tigers killed two fishermen in the last three days while they were fishing in canals near the Sundarbans.
The victims are Rahid Gazi, 37, of Nalian village and Miraj Molla, 24, of Kalabogi village under Dakop upazila in Khulna district.
A tiger in a canal at Haddabra char attacked Rahid on his neck on Monday and dragged the body inside the forest, eyewitnesses said.
Forest guards and fishermen recovered his fleshless body from deep forest after three hours long search, said Deputy Forest Officer Mihir Kumar.
In another incident, Miraj was killed on November 1 at Kalirchar canal.
