This is a learning process and we have to always make amends to make it more foolproof in future. Else, every captured tiger would end up in a cage or in safaris.”
    Meanwhile, Walker, that had stayed on in Dnyanganga for over a 12 months after ceaselessly wandering over a number of districts, has not been noticed for a couple of month and a half.
