The Wildlife Crime Cell (WCC) of the Union ministry of environment has sent an alert to the Gujarat government warning of poachers camping in villages of Amreli and Bhavnagar districts, around Gir sanctuary. The WCC has also supplied photographs of suspected poachers to the state forest department. Local panchayat officials and forest range officers are on their toes, keeping in mind the 2007 incident when members of Pardhi tribe had poached eight Asiatic lions. A special team led by CID (crime) had then arrested 35 members of the tribe.
