Tigers of the Eastern Ghats - parvez - 12-31-2016

Eastern ghats tigers include those from states of Andhra Pradesh, some parts of Tamil Nadu and Orissa. 
The tiger reserves of Simlipal, Satkosia, Srisailam-Nagarjunsagar & Amrabad, along with its buffer Gundla Brahmeswaram sanctuary lies on the eastern ghats, along with Papikonda National Park which may become one in future.

Nice pictures, especially the Similipal black tiger in your first post. Most tigers seem a bit less dense than those in central and northern parts of India, but that could be a result of age (most tigers seem youngish).

The first tiger in your last post is as big as they come. He, the second and the third tiger in that post seem to be one and the same. 

Some years ago, I found a story in one of the American hunting magazins. The tiger shot by an American in Orissa somewhere in the fifties of the last century could have been one of the largest I saw. I'll post it in the tiger extinction thread. It has a photograph.

Im loving the pictures. tfs


RE: Tigers of Eastern ghats landscape - parvez - 01-02-2017

Agreed peter. You can see Assam tiger thread. I posted probable reasons for their stockiness or muscular density. That may be due to intermixing of indochinese tiger genes though I am not sure. Tigers from rest of India seem to be almost same when it comes to stockiness. Perhaps the three are same individual. I didn't observe carefully thanks. I am eagerly waiting for your picture from simlipal from old hunting records.

What the heck happened to the second tiger's stripes? 

Seems as if he is more black than orange.


RE: Tigers of Eastern ghats landscape - Polar - 01-18-2017

Also in relation to the comment I just made, maybe the larger conglomeration of stripes on the second tiger could be a possible link to these melanistic tigers in the area.
