The National Council of SPCAs confirmed they were investigating a case of a tiger on the loose.
“The Edenvale SPCA is currently investigating another case of an escaped tiger on the loose in Edenvale.
“It is believed that the tiger is a 9-month-old female.
“The welfare of the tiger and the other animals in the area must be considered as authorities begin their search and attempt to capture the animal,” said spokesperson Keshvi Nair.
Nair said the SPCA had contacted the Gauteng Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (GDARD) and alerted them to the escaped tiger.
“Given that GDARD and the Ekurhuleni municipality are responsible for enforcing the legislation that allows these dangerous animals to be kept in captivity in the first place, some form of accountability and responsibility for the welfare of the animal/s and the residents needs to be taken by them,” said Nair.
A week ago, Sheba the tigress was shot dead by her owner after she escaped from captivity.
She escaped from a private farm enclosure in Walkerville, south of Joburg, on January 13.
Owner Rassie Erasmus said killing her was not an easy decision.
