Elephants are used in the operation to hunt down the man-eater in Bihar state.
Police in India have shot dead a tiger after it killed at least nine people in Champaran, Bihar state.
India's tiger reserves - protected areas where the animals can live - have not expanded at the same rate as its tiger population. The operation was led by Bihar police, who surrounded a sugarcane field near the village of Sitaltola Baluwa to kill the three-year-old tiger known as T-104. "It was a sleepless night for the whole village," Paltu Mahato told the Hindustan Times. "While some of us kept banging stones against each other, others kept beating tin containers to shoo away the tiger."
