Mangaluru: Nethravathi, a 15-year-old tigress at the Pilikula Biological Park, died on Wednesday morning, having been injured in a recent fight with another tiger here.
Nethravathi had attacked Reva, a 6-year-old male tiger, on June 4. The officials and staff members managed to control the fighting tigers and also send them into their cages. Nethravathi was found to be recovering from the injuries in the fight, following the treatment by the medical officers at Pilikula, but is learned to have collapsed and died on Wednesday morning, even as the medical staff were treating it.

While the body of the deceased tigress sustained scars post-battle, the medical experts opine that the tigress could have suffered a heart attack due to the intensity of the fight with Reva.
Both Nethravathi and Reva were born at the Pilikula Biological Park, which currently has eight tigers.

Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
