It's a pretty serious one if you're able to watch it.
Believe it or not, after it was all said and done, Noor was off mating with Khumba about an hour away from where this fight occurred.

Incredible video. The intensity in that scrap is leopard like at times with the rolling about. The wrath of a male tiger really is something special. Tfs!

Should upload the YouTube version but wow they were really going at it you wouldn't believe they're litter mates

seems like there was a third tiger too, it ran away once the fight started. did anyone else see that? tfs
edit: just found out, it was T57 and T39/Noor resting together after mating. T58 ran up on them and started the fight. T39/Noor quickly ran away and despite being ambushed, T57 quickly took control of the fight and won. on that note, T57 is the most powerful male in Ranthambore. he also was behind the brutal mauling of Kumbha\T34 not too long ago. those of you that aren’t aware, both T58 and T57 are brothers.

One of the greatest natural history moment witnessed yesterday at the Ranthambore Tiger reserve. As we started our full day safari and reached the Zone 6 around 10.30 we got to see the mating pair of T 57 and T 39, as we were photographing them we saw a mystery tiger pop out of the bush and cross over the road and he crouched down hearing the roar of T57. After a while we saw the unknown male come out of the bushes and slowly mark his area and cut across to the place where T 57 and T 39 were resting and he crouched to the ground for a few mins before stalking slowly and slowly towards the sleeping tigers, he went up close to the sleeping T 57 and stood there without being noticed. A few seconds later as he put his paw on the sleeping T 57, the crazy fight started with him pinning down T 57, a few seconds later the tables turned and T57 was over him biting his elbow and face. The bloody fight ended and both the tigers moved away after being wounded.
As we were wondering who this male could be we realized it was none other than T 58 whose territory goes around 7 and 8 zone and who is the brother of T 57.
As soon as the fight started we saw T 39 tigress run away from the spot and after a hour we tracked her now to find her mating with another different male called T 34 at Zone 1.
This video was made by Mr Hans Raj and was witnessed by 3 guides, 3 drivers, 7 of my guests and 2 foreigners as we were the only three vehicles on a full day safari.
We were the only lucky 16 people who got to witness this at Ranthambore National park and this video credit entirely goes to Mr Hansraj Gurjar
The timing of the fight was around 11:24 am on 15 Oct 19 at Zone 6 and this lasted for around 2:12 mins in total

The two most famous of Gir's dominant pride-males of the previous generation, Maulana & Raju came face to face at the edge of their respective territories. Very tiger-like on there being no actual physical contact, just posturing.

From 0:50 I think we see a short glimpse of something that only litter-brothers would do, the winner going easy on his attacker & giving a chance to back out... but yes, the moment was gone soon.

The fight clearly shows that tigers that fight on their backs are not submissive as some “experts” claim. It’s a defensive manoeuvre to get all it’s four legs involved in getting the other tiger on the back. Ranthambore does have a sex ratio problem as they have transported a few females to Sariska (they have become infertile or developed some tumours as they haven’t reproduced) and that has skewed the sex ratio within Ranthambore.

Did the lionesses protect their cubs ? Perhaps it is told at the end...

This was filmed by @larissa_pantanal in 2017 but it’s a must share! —————————————————
Check out this super interesting quarrel between Patricia and Medrosa. They are actually mother and daughter but it’s clear Patricia is setting some boundaries! •

Badly injured Male in Corbett that later succumbed to it's injuries which were most likely from a Territorial Fight.
