✦AI Summary
Forest officials in Kerala are urging tea plantation managers to bring cattle into sheds by 3 p.m. to prevent tiger attacks. The rise in attacks is attributed to cattle being left to graze in plantations overnight, which attracts predators and disrupts their natural hunting instincts.
Amid recurring tiger attacks on cattle in the tea plantation areas of Devikulam and Munnar, the Forest department plans to direct plantation managements to ensure that livestock are brought into sheds early in the afternoon.
