There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

[color=rgba(var(--i1d,38,38,38),1)]sid_dtr - [/color]The Ghost of Kishanpur
In 2018 while I was following 3 tigress and two tigers I had named "Baildanda Female" "Kankati Female" Tulli Puliya Female" and another female "Sharda Female" and the two Males being "Chaltuwa Male" and "Ring Road Male" in the Ecotourism area off Kishanpur I came upon a new pugmark at Jhadi Taal habitat.. it was clearly a Males pugmarks but with a very distinctive left front foot impression
He was named "Thunder Male"
His entry was marked with the exit of Ring Road Male from the Jhadi Habitat never to be seen again

Next was Kankati who lost to her wounds sustained during a fight over cattle kill with Baildanda Female and has never been seen since

Sharda Female was discovered dead around the RCC watchtower with her neck and left shoulder partially eaten and his pugmarks all around the road and area

He had taken over the Jhadi Habitat and had started exploring the Waterhole kingdom of Kishanpur

Baildanda Female was seen with five cubs on 17 Nov 2019 and the very next day we saw him on the Fireline Road sitting in the middle of the road
All 5 cubs were lost by Baildanda between 15 Nov to 15 March 2020

On 1st Nov 2020 Baildanda Female was seen with her 2nd litter of 4 cubs with Chaltuwa Male

In Jan 2021 he was camera trapped by Forest Dept killing two of Baildanda's cubs from the second litter of 4 .. holding and crushing one cub in his mouth

Baildanda Female is not seen in the Ecotourism area of Kishanpur now but was seen alone once and I have only seen her pugmarks in this season and hope she is hiding and saving her precious treasure
Last I saw her pugmarks leading towards the Non Tourism area of Gulrahi and hope she is hiding her precious treasure

Chaltuwa Male was found dead by Forest Dept In May 2021

that video of Gabbar sort of reminds me of Gulrighat male from 2018 season. @Rage2277 any news of Gulrighat? also i wonder if there is a connection between the two.
