Royal Bengal Tiger is coming action

The big cat was found dead beside a pond in the southern Sundarbans forest, where it apparently came to quench its thirst.
The Independent reports the dead tiger was examined by a veterinary officer, who determined that it died of excessive heat.
The Divisional Forest Officer of the Sundarbans Forest Division, Shahidullah, told the newspaper that such a death among tigers had never been seen before.
A 2004 census found about 280 Royal Bengal tigers in Bangladesh. An estimated 2,500 live in neighboring India, where conservation efforts have allowed their numbers to more than double since the 1970s.
