PTR fencing fails to curb man-tiger conflicts | India News – Times of India

PILIBHIT: The poor quality of the 9-foot-high chain-link fencing, spanning 42.5 km between the Mala, Mahof, and Barahi forest ranges of Pilibhit Tiger Reserve (PTR) and adjacent agricultural fields, has undermined efforts to mitigate man-tiger conflicts.Initially introduced in a 17.5 km stretch as a pilot project in 2019-20, the fencing was expanded by 25 km in 2023-24, costing Rs 7.75 crore, after PTR authorities claimed it was more effective than solar fencing.PTR authorities initially deemed the chain-link fencing sturdy enough to last decades. However, it has sustained significant damage, with the base wall deteriorating and the wire mesh bent by illegal infiltrators. This damage has failed to prevent wild animals, especially tigers, from entering agricultural fields and has not curbed...

Is Biden Competent For 2nd Term? Health Experts Call Out “Raging Ageism”

As Joe Biden's verbal gaffes, shaky voice, and other troubling signs have brought an intense focus on the US President's mental acuity, health experts are calling on him and rival Donald Trump to pass additional cognitive tests, even while warning against leaping to conclusions. Such tests, experts said, could either help repudiate speculation that the 81-year-old president's mental state is in worrying decline -- or else confirm it -- and could enlighten voters on the mental abilities of Trump, who has had his own share of verbal lapses. But reliable diagnoses, they caution, cannot be made from afar. Since Biden's disastrous performance in his debate with Trump two weeks ago, the Democrat's campaign has faced fierce opposition. A growing number of officials in his own party are questionin...
