#Tiger found #dead in #Corbett, 3rd big #cat death this Year 2019..

Nainital: The body of a male tiger was found in Bijrani zone of Corbett Tiger Reserve (CTR) on Friday afternoon. This is the third recorded tiger death in the state this year and first in the CTR.

Preliminary reports suggest that the big cat was killed because of infighting. CTR director Rahul, who goes only by his first name, told TOI, “The tiger’s skull was broken and there were claw and teeth marks all over its body. This suggests that the animal was killed as a result of infighting. Its age was between 8 and 10 years. We have also collected samples from water holes around the spot to rule out foul play.”

He added that the big cat was cremated after conducting a post-mortem and its viscera samples have been collected for further tests as per National Tiger Conservation Authority guidelines.

Gulrighat 

I spoke to a good friend of mine from Wildlife Institute of India recently and he told me, despite being one of the largest tiger he has ever seen. he was adamant that Kauvia Ghatia and Sathiana male were both bigger than he is, on the same note, Charger, Gulrighat, Chaltuwa male, S male and all the others are comparable.

here is a few of them

again not sure who this male is, what a beast. 


I also asked him how the Kanha males compared, he laughed and said he didn’t want to be a part of that discussion. then i asked if Umarpani compared to any of the males seen by him and he was adamant, all of the Dudhwa males are bigger than Umarpani by a long shot.

I asked some who had seen Umarpani and the Gulrighat Male about their size comparison and he said the following...

"I just saw Gulrighat Male three days back and I have seen Umarpani as well. I will not comment on who is bigger (I know this debate is on for sometime now), but I can say with conviction that the argument that Kanha tigers are biggest may need to be revisited. Dudhwa/ Terai tigers are humongous and Gulrighat is not the biggest among Terai tigers. I am told by locals there that Sathiana male is bigger than Gulrighat male. My next trip will focus on Sathiana who gives sightings once in two months!!!"
