I knew that it's an assumption. Was it really confirmed that another tiger that killed these two?

Official statement said:
"The second possibility is that while an adult tiger killed the rhino, the sub-adult tiger strayed into the adult tiger’s territory to take a share of the rhino meat, during which the older tiger killed him. Fresh tiger droppings close to the two carcasses were noticed on Tuesday, lending more weight to this suspicion."

It took place in Bagori Range of Kaziranga tourism zone, KZT-85's turf.
