tigers, and In consequence OF the dread
existing among the people, it is now
proposed to deport the inhabitants OF
the villages most threatened TO other
parts Of the country where tigers are
not so numerous and where they can
pursue agricultural occupations With a
greater degree of security, AT present
they fear to go anywhere neal the bord-
.ers of the forest. Although the gov

nifty of the tigers is in part due to
superstition, for it is considered wrong
To kill one unless he first attacks or 9th
