Earlier this month, police killed a tiger after it savaged at least nine people in India.
The beast was dubbed the "man-eater of Champaran" and sparked a massive hunt of about 200 police officers and district officials.
Some of the cops were patrolling the area in the Bihar state on elephants.
Communities around the Valmiki Tiger Reserve were being terrorised by the predator.
India is home to more than 70% of the world's tigers and reserves have not expanded at the same rate as its tiger population.
This has forced some of the tigers to go to human-occupied areas for food, which has resulted in livestock and sometimes people being killed.
The tiger, known as T-104, was three years old and had been cornered in a sugarcane field.
Kumar Gupta, chief wildlife warden for the region, told the Times of India the tiger was "dangerous to human lives".
Valmiki Tiger Reserve's director, Nesamani K, said the hunt to find T-104 had started Saturday.
It came after a mum and her child were killed in a tiger attack.
Shortly after news emerged that a mother and her child had been killed in a tiger attack.
