Langkat, N. Sumatra ANTARA News)- A Sumatran tiger ( Panthera Tigris

Sumatrae) reportedly trespassed and preyed on cattle belonging to local residents of
a village in Bahorok Sub-district, Langkat District, North Sumatra Province.

Head of Section V of Bahorok Sub-district Pabel Turnip stated here on

Tuesday that local residents have filed a report regarding the tiger ’s attack. Due to
the dwindling numbers of natural prey in its habitat in Mount Leuser National Park,
the tiger was agressively hunting for food in the local village.

“In fact, the local people are rearing their cattle in the area within the tigers
hunting corridor and this has driven the tigers down to the residential area in
Bahorok,” Turnip explained.

Moreover, Turnip urged the local residents to change their cattle-rearing

method to avoid the tigers’ zone to prevent further incidents. Therefore, the local
authority has set up a restriction zone for local residents in the area around the
tigers’ habitat.

In the meantime, a local ranger John Purba said that he and his unit were
armed to guard round-the clock at the station. Purba stated that the CCTV footage of
the Mount Leuser National Park Agency revealed the tiger’s activity in the habitat.
Tourists and tourist guides have been advised to abstain from visiting the location
as the situation is not conducive.
