Tiger T-24 was the king of Ranthambore National Park until he was removed to live a life of captivity inside a zoo. After being linked to 4 killings of people, he was labeled a man-eater who was too dangerous to exist in the park. This sparked nation wide protests and the conversation of the detrimental impacts of human-wildlife conflict.
