The state government has deployed 14 newly customized Bolero campers fitted with winches, remote controlled movable search light, and Olive green colour to protect the Similipal Tiger Reserve. The vehicles have seats along with hoods to accommodate frontline staff. They will be used by the Similipal Special Tiger Protection Force, joint task force, and other frontline staff for protection duty in sensitive areas. The vehicles will enable movement on steep ghat and muddy dirt roads during the monsoons. The state government has allowed these vehicles for the Similipal Tiger Reserve Foundation with the help of the Odisha mining corporation.
