The young tiger escaped from a private breeder in the Ukrainian town of Strychava.
Authorities in eastern Slovakia have urged residents to be cautious after a tiger was spotted in a border area over the weekend.
The young animal had escaped from a private breeder in the town of Strychava in neighbouring Ukraine.
On Sunday, the Poloniny national park said on Facebook that photo traps had registered the tiger’s presence near three Slovakian towns.
The town of Ulic had told citizens to limit their outdoors movementsand not take any risks.
"In case you see an animal, call the police or the mayor of the village," a Facebook post read.
Police in the region said they were informed about the escaped tiger by their Ukrainian counterparts.
On Monday, Slovakia's Environment Ministry said there had been no new sightings of the animal.
Poloniny national park director Miroslav Bural told the Tasr news agency that the tiger was originally kept at a zoo in eastern Ukraine but had been transported west due to the Russian invasion.
