These camera traps have captured images of several species of deer as well as beer.
Following reports of attacks on domestic animals by suspected tigers at Balok village of Tamenglong district a few years back, Forest Department officials carried out an investigation and they found pug marks of tiger.
Soon after, Tiger Conservation Project was also launched in the district.
The tiger survey which would begin tomorrow along with Biologists from the Wildlife Institute of India would be done by three teams named Chingkao, Chakha and Buning.
