POKHARA: A tiger was found dead on the bank of local Gaduwa stream at Kalika VDC-6 in the district on Monday.

The big cat might have been dead five to six days back, said Baburam Paudel, a forest guard.

Paudel also added that police was informed by the locals who found the tiger dead while collecting green fodder last Tuesday.

A team of the police personnel that reached the spot said the tiger might have fallen off from a cliff and died.
