The White Tiger that is headed from Chennai to Sajjangarh Biological park understands only Tamil. So, while the wildlife citizens are rejoicing, this situation has put the staff members here under a fix.

Rama, the five year old White Tiger will be brought to Udaipur from Chennai’s Arignar Anna Zoological Park in exchange of two wolves from Jaipur and Jodhpur zoos. The transfer had been approved by Central Zoo Authority.

Officials at the park are saying that either the tiger learns Mewari or the caretakers will have to learn Tamil. To combat this situation, DFO and in-charge of Sajjangarh Biological Park, T Mohanraj, has sent a request to the director at Chennai zoo seeking a Tamil speaking caretaker along with the tiger.

Rama was born in the Chennai zoo in 2011 and understands commands of caretaker in Tamil. Sajjangarh park already has a female tigress Damini and Rama is being brought in to increase the tiger population.
