In the picturesque area of the Dudhwa National Park, spread out in the Lakhimpur Kheri district in UP, a beautiful harmony unfolds between man and the beast. Farmers here cultivate sugarcane, their livelihood intertwined with the rhythms of nature. But in this delicate dance, a new player emerges – the majestic tiger.
1996 batch Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer Ramesh Pandey shared an interesting post regarding this development on social media platform ‘X’. He wrote, “It’s an interesting system in place. Spacing in sugarcane is helping to avoid conflicts it seems?”
In the post, it is mentioned that while roaming the lush Terai area along the forest banks, tigers find solace in the sugarcane fields. As wild boars and Nilgai come to feast on the sweet bounty, the tiger finds an easy meal. And in this unexpected alliance, a unique bond forms between farmers and the apex predator.Related Stories
