The three-year-old animal had been blamed for attacking six people and killing three since September prompting a massive search operation in the forests of Himalayan Uttarakhand state, northern India.
It was eventually found and shot dead before villagers broke into celebrations and paraded with the dead animal's carcass.
Hunters and locals villagers jointly conducted the 44-day long operation to locate the tiger after a woman was killed outside Jim Corbett park in early September.
Authorities used drones and helicopters along with elephants and hunting dogs to assist the scores of ground staff to track the evasive animal.
