Gabbar aka leopardface, seems to have lost some weight after collaring. Now its the winter season and the monsoon is long gone. But I dont no the exact reason behind is weight loss. 

Recently the forest department has put a collar on him for tracking. It was told by the guide and driver that since the day they put the collar, he used to run away on seeing the vehicles.

A Signature Ranthambhore shot...1 week of dry spell in Ranthambhore National Park, turns the entire park brown and golden. This gives excellent camouflage to the resident tigers, but then the trackers of the park are expert in spotting them.

This was shot during the amazing sighting I had at Kabini, May 2014. After an uneventful half hour of roaming in the jungle, our guide heard the alarm call of a Sambhar. Within moments we reached the junction of two tracks, hoping sight something special. To our right was a huge group of Spotted Deer, standing alert, with tails straight and ears wide open. "Tiger! Tiger!" Our guide uttered those magic words. Within moments, he emerged from the bushes and crossed the track in front of us, paying no attention to the deer, easy prey, perhaps.

T-37… She was one of the reasons why tourism started to boom in Zone-9 aka Kuwalji area of Ranthambhore which is around 25 miles from the main zones of the National Park. She was the mate of the ferocious T-42 who's terror of chasing vehicles lead to fewer people venture so faraway from the park. She died under mysterious circumstances last year and she was a gorgeous lady nontheless.
