Munna the Emperor of Kanha National Park and of the oldest known male in the Park 






Wagdoh mating with an unknown female, I don't think this is Madhuri because she has a new litter of Cubs and they are near Junona Bufferzone and the video says this was in Agarzari Bufferzone. so it looks like Wagdoh male is making moves in the Bufferzone while providing full protection to his new set of cubs.. truly the best father I've ever managed to document, T25 (Dollar male) of Ranthambore and B2 of Bandhavgarh are a close 2nd and 3rd for me. 

(3:39-3:45) - the difference in size is immense. [img]images/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

very unusual video of a tigress/young tiger.. looks like a bullet wound above the left eye but the question is, how is he/she still surviving if that is the case??

RE: B2 and Other Great Tiger Pics from India - TheLioness - 07-22-2014

i just asked this photographer how Raja stacks up with Munna since he has seen both. Hopefully we can finally get  a idea of how large Raja actually is.

Rage or Copter, can you help me identify this tiger?
I have already checked all the known tadobe males but his stripe pattern doesn't match, so we probably have a new face here.

....on our morning safari in June 2014 we were lucky enough to observe a male tiger in Tadoba in his absolute prime.
'Tyson' is a huge male tiger who has a large territory either side of Tadoba Lake which overlaps with an area where at least 3 female tigers roam. Sometimes there is a little conflict with another male called 'Leopard Face' who is smaller than Tyson and loses all the territorial battles....
don't get confused he is Katezari male but the writer called him "Tyson".

The stripes were little hard to see but it is definitely my boy Saturn and amazing pictures once again Phatio, TFS.

 


RE: B2 and Other Great Tiger Pics from India - Pckts - 07-24-2014

I think Gabbar is going to give Katezari fits, Gabbar looks thicker and thicker every time I see him, it will be interesting to see how him, saturn and katezari play out. I wonder how long till these younger males want what Waghdoh holds.


RE: B2 and Other Great Tiger Pics from India - Roflcopters - 07-24-2014

So far, Saturn has fought both Katezari and Leopard face. He had the upper hand against Leopard face but lost the fight against Katezari. nothing on a serious scale though, just a display of dominance because all three of these males are sharing the same space at the moment.

Gabbar is leopard face right? He sure is a beauty, they all are.

yup that's him. Thanks Copter.
whoa I almost didn't recognize him. He looks a bit thinner now, right?
the interesting part is that the writer mistook him as Tyson (Katezari). five minutes later after Saturn walk away from the lake, the real Katezari male arrives on the scene.

*This image is copyright of its original author

He stealthily approaching the road and checking the situation.

after that he displays his dominance using his feces (and gestures?)

*This image is copyright of its original author


so  both Katezari and Saturn still  sharing the same space but Katezari continues to dominate him, imo.
but  who knows what will happen next, this is gonna be interesting.
