SIAK, RIAU - The appearance of a tiger in Siak is known to have occurred in the past two weeks and even the first appearance resulted in the death of a resident on behalf of Andi Sukerman. Tragically, his separate head and body are strongly suspected to be due to the ferocity of the Sumatran tiger two days before Eid.

The Riau Province Conservation and Natural Resources Center (BB KSDA) confirmed that a Sumatran tiger was observed by a camera trap that had been installed at a location near the death of a resident who was attacked by a masher in Siak District, Siak Regency.

"The team checked the camera traps that have been installed. From the results of the camera traps, it was observed that one Sumatran tiger monitored the trap cage and only passed on Thursday (4/5) at 18.53 WIB at the coordinates of 0.82689 N 102,01633 E," said Head of BB KSDA Riau, Genman Hasibuan in Pekanbaru, Saturday.

Furthermore, the team also carried out monitoring using unmanned aircraft (drone) to review the trajectories of tigers. However, based on the results of the forest air photo, it was too tight to monitor the movement of tigers.

The fact that the tiger was monitored by the camera is also in line with information from the public who met directly with tigers in their garden, precisely Jalan Pesantren, Kampung Rempak. The resident, Ujang (46) admitted that he met the king of the forest on Thursday (4/5) at around 08.15 WIB.

At that time, Ujang was carrying out activities in the solar oil palm and he saw an adult waist tiger passing into the rubber forest.

"The place of appearance not far from yesterday's location found traces. At the location, traces of the Sumatran tiger were also found resembling traces of a Sumatran tiger measuring approximately 13 centimeters," he said.

Furthermore, his party continues to disseminate information to the public to be careful about activities around the scene and not to carry out activities outside the home alone. Especially the active time of the Sumatran tiger is in the afternoon until the morning.

"The team will monitor and follow up on any information that develops in the community if there are new signs or signs of the existence of a Sumatran tiger," he said, quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, May 6.

Riau KSDA BB installed cages and camera traps twice on Saturday (22/4) and Wednesday (26/4). With goat bait until now, the tiger has not yet entered the trap.
