A tiger with only three legs has been photographed eating a dead buffalo in Khao Laem National Park, near where a man was recently attacked by three tigers.
The tiger was photographed after Freeland Foundation members and park rangers set up 20 camera traps to track tigers between Feb 4 and Feb 7, following an attack on a Karen man last month.
The tiger was believed to be one of the three that had attacked and mauled Wan, 46, on Jan 28, after he left his village to round up his nine buffaloes from the forest in Kanchanaburi.
Two of his three dogs were killed during the attack.
The Freeland Foundation recommended that the tiger be captured and taken to a safe area as the animal's disability poses a risk to its health, particularly from poachers.
