Aroma
Basmati rice , a long grained rice which grows in Indian-Subcontinent region is known for its aroma, some 10 times higher other non-basmati varieties.The strong aroma and long-grain make the Basmati a most exotic rice variety, which has become synonymous to Biriyani.
---------
That was a large male , we saw in the last day of our Safari in Dudhwa National Park. The Tiger was inside a bush, Initially. After a short wait it appeared on the path.Slowly it started to walk and for every few yards it would smell the bushes or tree barks.
Its January, also a good time to mate.
Tiger started to mark the territory by urinating on the trees.
The marking was happening in more than few trees on the way.The aroma serves two purpose - an announcement for the female Tigers and to tell other Males that territory is occupied.
The aroma, actually is not pungent(unlike human's).
It is close to Aroma of Basmati rice.
Aroma of basmati is due to the chemical compound
2-Acetyl-1-Pyrroline. The urine of the Tiger also has the same compound.Few other mammal also has the same chemical compound and similar aroma .
Perhaps, next time if you get an opportunity check it

Thanks a lot. You know how these government websites are!
I had seen your image of Sauraha before, but not that one i posted. Side by side the similarity is obvious.
There was a time when he used to look really large to me...
