According to conservator of forests for Nagpur Division, the attack took place around 4 pm when Raju Domaji Fofse, aged around 30 years, had gone about 5 km into the forest to graze his goats. The incident took place in compartment 450, where a shepherd was attacked earlier.
Fofse, a resident of Ranmangli village, had a miraculous escape as the tiger injured his leg leading to dislocation. The victim has been brought to the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in the evening. "We learn that Fofse went too close to the tiger despite the animal giving a warning by roaring," said Rambabu.
This is the third attack, second in 15 days in the area. Earlier, a woman Barjabai Boje of Ranmangli had died on April 18 after being attacked by a tiger while collecting mahua flowers.
