The Tiger Legends. #TigerLegends

The death of Gladiator of Bandhavgarh
--------------------------------

Rajbhera tigress II (aka Jaya) is the daughter of the Jhurjhura female (aka Durga) born along with Bhagoda and Kankati sr. Jhurjhura female mated with Bokha for this litter. She is the direct descendant of a very precious line of Bandhavgarh that’s expounded below.

Sita > Hardia > Rajbhera I > Jhurjhura > Rajbhera II.

The new Rajbhera queen is very bold and valiant, hence her name Jaya, the victorious. She drove both her mother, the Jhurjhura female and her sister Kankati out of the territories, then managing vast areas incl. Chakradhara, Rajbhera and Serai meadows that were previously ruled by two different tigress queens; half the territory was ruled by Mohini (daughter of Sita) and the other was ruled by Rajbhera I. Rajbhera-I mated with B3 (brother of the famous B2) and delivered a single litter consisting of Jhurjhura tigress.

*(Jhurjhura female died in an accident caused by a gypsy inside the tourist zone, when she was raising her 6-month-old cubs from Bokha. Kankati sr. was notorious for the only recorded cannibalism event in documented history, when she killed and fed on the Chorbehra or Langdi tigress. Ofcourse, Kankati too later died in another territorial fight).

Rajbhera's first litter included Solo-another huge tigress, Kankati Jr, the Dhamokhar female and Bhagoda male. Solo mated with Mangu and delivered two cubs, that perished later. Kankati Jr. mated with Mr. X and delivered two male and one female cubs, who were orphaned when she was infamously poached. Dhamokhar female has a litter of three cubs, in the buffer area, while Bhagoda hasn’t been spotted in a long time.

Rajbhera female gave birth to a second litter that consisted of three males and one female. The males haven’t been spotted in a while, and the female died early on under dubious conditions. When Rajbhera had her second litter, Solo drove away her mom and is commanding atleast half the previous territory that Rajbhera used to enjoy.

At close to 12 years of age, Rajbhera tigress was a legend, commanded a huge chunk of one of the prime and prey rich areas. She's known for her hunting skills and rearing abilities (and her least dependence on cattle, that creep into the porous zones of Bandhavgarh).

She succumbed to injuries inflicted in a territorial fight with Spotty/Solo. Rajbhera II was making inroads in Spotty’s territory (of late) and that seemed to be the end for her, particularly after her recent struggle to survival, when she was fed (assisted), by the department, after some fatal injuries from previous territorial fight/hunt a few months ago.

She was last seen at Batan area, day before y'day, grievously injured and could have possibly died during the treatment, from the fatal injuries.

She now disappeared like the titular Gladiator - Maximus into the Rajbhera and Sehra meadows that she used to rule like a queen.

P.S. I and dear late Raj ji used to have countless discussions on Rajbhera female and her family. Much information here has been provided by him during those discussions.

The images of the mortal remains have been shared on whatsapp, and giving the credits to that person, while my image of the tigress was from Sehra meadows in early 2016.



here is the tigress that killed her, blue eyes’s daughter aka Spotty

Quite disgusting, sickening ! At the first humanity ages, the men had to protect themselves against the big cats. At the last age, now, we must intensively protect the big cats.

But this is a desesperate struggle. The african continent doubles its population every human generation: 4 billion people at the XXIth century end. In these conditions, the wild life doesn't mean anything. Casually, the african wild fauna is, by far, the most threatened.

Only one good certainty: I believe in a poetic justice. The wild disappeared fauna, we will say goodbye too.

One suggestion: the posted accounts before this one (#1410), spoke about very interesting facts about tigers in wild... Why do we mix fascinating accounts about big cats and just after a quite sordid new ?

Sometimes to times, poachers are killed. They (the poachers) will say that it's not a job without risk. But nothing deterrent compared to benefits. And this is all the problem. The problem comes from the "sleeping partners", the sponsorship. And those guys are not living within the Third World country. When they want to destroy a nation, they destroy its history, its culture and its heritage (therefore its fauna). The globalism implies that all peoples of the world will be uprooted. We're living the process.

India: Assam forest department recommends closure of mines next to Kaziranga tiger reserve

The Divisional Forest Officer (DFO) of Eastern Assam Wildlife Division has recommended closure of stone quarries in Karbi Anglong Hills that are causing damage to the animal corridors and ecology surrounding the Kaziranga National Park (KNP) and Tiger Reserve. 

The report, sent to the field director of KNP and Chief Wildlife Warden, Assam, the DFO has details the adverse impacts of the mines. The report has come to light after Assam-based wildlife activist Rohit Choudhury obtained it under the Right to Information Act, 2005.

The forest department report echoes the report of the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) who had flagged the impact of the mining on tigers, elephants and other wildlife in April.
