Hanging weight (!)

No tigress, animal, human, or living creature would be comfortable with a 2 kg electronic gadget hanging on the neck for a life time (news item on death of a Sundurban tigress DS 31/10).

These days mini electronic monitoring tools are available for tracing the movements of wildlife. I was wondering whether trying a mobile would work (it would, for a few days). Add a solar panel for charging. The tigress charged some persons in irrigation, and later the animal was found dead. Tiger population reduced by one!
