We’re talking with in a few feet and can’t smell them or kills where the tigers walk right past without smelling. But if even a leaf ruffles or branch cracks the Tigers go into immediate alert. Even as far as to mention they can possible hear a rapid heart beat if close enough but  couldn’t prove it obviously. Communication is through the Jacobson organ which allows analyzation of the scent.

That is weird, as Mazák, Sunquist, Karanth, Schaller, Karanth, Michelle and even Thapar (which regularly quote other old authors) conclude that tigers had regular smell sence, like any other cat. The only one that said that it was "bad" was Sankhala.

Now, if you are going to quote hunting tales, sorry but I prefer to stay with the real experts. Reply
