Northeast has probably the highest genetic diversity. That's good news as I once suspected them to be inbred. Possibly the biggest tigers in the world they are now on safer side.

Isn't this tiger is from Arunachal Pradesh..from Namdapha Tiger Reserve?
I think i saw in on Panthera's FB page.

It was thought that Dampa had no tigers but in March 2012, Aranyak & WWF India analysed faecal samples by DNA fingerprinting to confirm tiger presence in the region.
Although no tiger has ever been photographed or camera-trapped...

@Rishi yes I too had that doubt but unable to get confirmed information. After getting confirmed I will remove it.

The Assam region, is located in north-eastern India; is delimited in the north by the high Himalayan mountains of Bhutan and Arunachal Pradesh, in south-east by the Naga Hills, and in the south by the Shillong Plateau. This region is crossed from north-east to west by the Brahmaputra river, that have created an alluvial flood plains and a rivers system that is one of the largest in the world; is also called Assam valley or Brahmaputra valley.

The subtropical climate (from 5° to 32° C), add to the physic geographical aspects, create a unique place.

Forest type mapping using satellite data has been undertaken by the Forest Survey of India with reference to Champion and Seth Classification. As per this assessment, the state has 18 forest types belonging to five forest type groups: Tropical Wet Evergreen (12.04%), Tropical Semi Evergreen (51.71%), Tropical Moist Deciduous (25.64%), Tropical Dry Deciduous (0.09%) and Sub Tropical Pine Forests (0.45%). Plantation/TOF are 10.07%. (Data from India State of Forest Report, 2011).
