He said Sen's 22-year-old son Girish was with him when the attack happened, but the tiger had fatally injured the farmer on his neck and then escaped. Adarsh Kumar, Pilibhit Divisional Forest Officer (Social Forestry), said the spot where Sen was killed is about eight kilometres away from the place where another farmer, Shamsul Rahman Malik, was killed on Tuesday, and Mohammad Tasleem was killed on Monday.
"There is a possibility that this could have been done by the same tiger. We have formed six teams to track the tiger and they have been moving in the fields everyday to trace and tranquilise it. But their time is often wasted by villagers who insist they have seen the tiger in areas where the animal is not present. There is fear and anger among the people," he said.

A dead humpback whale was pulled from the bow of the Grand Princess cruise ship Wednesday in Ketchikan, Alaska
The Grand Princess, a 949-foot (290-meter) ship in the Princess Cruises fleet, on Wednesday morning pulled into Ketchikan with the marine mammal lodged on its submerged, bulbous bow, a device designed to avoid wave-making.
Princess spokesman Brian O'Connor said the company was surprised and saddened to discover the whale.
'It is unknown how or when this happened as the ship felt no impact,' he said in a statement.
'It is also unknown, at this time, whether the whale was alive or already deceased before becoming lodged on the bow.'

This home suffered major damage from a hailstorm in WaKeeney, Kansas, on Thursday, Aug. 10, 2017.
In one part of WaKeeney, a town of about 1,800 located some 200 miles northwest of Wichita, 90 percent of the vehicles in a parking lot were damaged by the hail, and nearby homes had window and siding damage, a National Weather Service employee reported.
In Trego County, where WaKeeney is located, hailstones as large as softballs were seen in some areas, according to reports relayed to the NWS.
"The atmosphere is primed this afternoon for giant hail and damaging winds as a slow-moving cold front drifts southward into the southern Plains at the surface and a burst of energy pushes southeastward from the central Rockies across the Plains," said weather.com meteorologist Jonathan Belles.

Wildlife rangers and hunters assembled in Jharkhand after another victim was trampled to death on Tuesday evening, the state's chief forest and wildlife conservator L R Singh said.
The rogue elephant crushed four victims in Bihar state in March before crossing into neighbouring Jharkhand and killing 11 more.
"Villagers are living in fear, especially the Paharia tribe that lives on the upper hillier regions where the elephant roams. Something must be done," Singh said, referring to one of the poorest indigenous tribal communities in eastern India.
Stating that the deaths due to lightning strike occurred in 29 of the 30 districts of the state, Special Relief Commissioner (SRC) B P Sethi said Ganjam and Mayurbhanj districts reported the highest number of 30 deaths each.
Both the districts were followed by 24 deaths in Balasore, 17 in Bhadrak, 16 in Keonjhar, 15 each in Jajpur and Kendrapara, 13 in Koraput, 12 in Nabarangpur, and 11 each in Dhenkanal, Cuttack and Bargarh.
Among the other districts, eight persons were killed in Sundargarh, while seven each in Angul, Kalahandi, Khordha and Nuapada, six in Puri, five each in Balangir and Sambalpur, four in Nayagarh, three each in Gajapati, Jagatsinghpur, Jharsuguda, Kandhamal and Rayagada, two in Deogarh and one each in Boudh and Malkangiri.
Between the 01:00 and the 06:00 hours local time, Poas presented exhalations with the presence of ashes, which is still maintained up to now.
The column still does not go over the 400 meters over the top of the crater, located in the province of Alajuela, 45 kilometers northwest from San Jose.
The column of ashes is produced one day after the eruption of gases, for several hours.
