From Tigerwalah, Season Round Up: Ranthambore: By Anurag Sharma.

Like each year it is time to rewind and have a relook at the sightings and tiger dynamics at Ranthambore during the past season. For ease of remembrence sharing zone wise updates from entire season. Lesser rains in monsoon last season had set the tone for season & sightings were on expected lines.

Zone 1– T39 started the sighting charts with her sighting on day one of season opening along with other tourism zone tigers.

She had succesfully protected her male cubs from T57 after her partner & father of cubs T24 was shifted to Sajjangarh by park authorities during monsoon . However it was only a while before this young determined lad started staking her claim on zone 1, she did try her best to block his advances but eventually gave up. To everyones’s surprise the family was sighted together on zone 2 with T57 on 15th October morning, perhaps first such documentation so far. Both the male cubs locally known as Kallu & Dholiya were pushed towards the periphery of park. Noor was once again ready to raise her third litter & eventually gave birth to 2 cubs as per photos released by forest department. However by the end of season there was no news of fate of her cubs & she was pregnant again. She is expected to deliver her fourth litter sometime during monsoon.

T-39, Noor.

Zone 2– Zone 2 had a dull start of season with noor and her family preferring to stay in zone 1. T60 the resident female of Guda was still shy initially & preferred to stay away from lime light most of the time. It was only resident male T57 who kept sighting charts ticking for zone 2. In March came the news of sighting of cubs of T60 in Guda area fathered by T57. Lack of water in area forced the family to frequent water holes in close proximity. Initially it was thought that she only had two cubs however your’s truly reported the presence of third cub on 18th March morning. They continued to oblige visitors throughout summer months & had slowly become the show stoppers for Ranthambore. While Noor preferred to stay away from this zone for most part of year, she was sighted frequently in May & June, perhaps protecting the area she shares with her neighbour T60.

Zone 3- Members of the first family preferred to spend most of their time away from each other with all the three cubs virtually distributing lake area amongst themselves. Arrowhead the dominant of two sisters took over the prime Rajbagh area while docile Lightining settled for Malik Lake closeby. Pacman the lone male cub in litter continued to wander in both the territoties gaining the size and confidence which would come in handy for survival in future. While all of them avoided any kind of confrontation with each other, settling the dominance issues amicably.Mother & current queen of Ranthambore T19 preferred to maintain a low profile in 2016 . She is all set to raise her third litter with long time partner Star male . She was reported mating with Star thrice since March 2016, latest being the one in 2016 few days before park closure. Star male aka T28 the dominant male of lakes continued to control lakes and other parts of his huge territory which virtually runs from one end of park to other however signs of aeging have started to show up. It would be interesting to see how long can he continue to hold against younger males.

Zone 4 – The duo of T74 & T75 continued to aggresively defend the territory they had once acquired from resident male T6. However their cousin & other young male T64 statrted making inroads into their territory around early December 2015. T74 was sighted mating with Laila aka T41, the resident female of area which raised hope of birth of new cubs in area as her lone female cub had separated from her in summers of 2015. By summers there was significant drop in sightings of both T74 & T75 , whereas T64 had established himself firmly in Bakola valley & was even sighted mating with T41 . This alliance has probably resulted in her getting pregnant finally. Lighting – female cub of T19 on the other hand continued to oblige visitors around Malik lake area for almost entire season.

Zone 5– As expected T 74 & his brother T75 continued to control the Bakola valley area while their cousin T64 continued to further expand his territory. He was sighted around Bagda area of first time in December 2015 by early summer he had taken control of Bakola area, a prime tiger habitat of zone & also was reported mating with T41 the resident female of this area. The other young resident on this zone T73 has probably given birth to cubs as young cubs were sighted in her territory towards end of season. The other dominant male of zone 5 Dollar aka T25 was not sighted in tourism area this season. He perhaps has also been forced to move away to newer area making space for gen next.

Other zones– T 8 and her long time partner continued to oblige visitors on zone 6 though T34 had a tough time defending his territory from challenger T58 who has snatched a large part of his territory. Infact T34 sustained multiple injuries in fight with T58 in March 2016. By end of season there was news of T8 having given birth to a fresh litter of cubs however the same has not been confirmed yet. Her daughter T61 and her both cubs continued to oblige visitors on zone 8 whereas T42 was sighted ocassionaly on zone zone 10.

Any sighting log of Ranthambore would not be complete without news of Queen Machli. She continues to spend most of her time in non tourism area of park & was sighted by tourists on multiple ocassions. She looks

Outlook for coming season – Next season looks promising as lot of cubs are expected in tourism area across zones. While T60, T73 already have cubs, T8 is expected to have delivered where as T19, T39 and T 41 are expected to deliver in coming season. It would be interesting to watch whether cubs of T19 would continue to live in same areas or they would be forced to move out in search of their own territory.

Highlight of Kaziranga tour was certainly this huge male tiger...we knew that tiger sightings are rare at Kaziranga but were always hopeful...After we could see this one for 10-15 mins in late evening (so very low light impacting photo quality), my guide told me that this was his first tiger sighting after a gap of 5 long years...!!

He moves in the shadow of dark trees while letting the blades of grass mimic his stripes; a perfect camouflage. He’s careful not to make a sound, for his every step is being watched; but the vigil watchers are justified in their need to watch him, for they know, he’s a swift, silent, and deadly killer.
