The team included staff from relevant departments, as well as experts and technicians from the feline research center under the National Forestry and Grassland Bureau and the Hengdaohezi Feline Breeding Center, according to a statement released by the bureau.
The meeting emphasized that the recent incident in Boli County, where a tiger entered a village and injured people, requires special attention so as to enhance conflict prevention and ensure the safety of both humans and the tiger.
