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.

I too have seen Gabbar growing and adding bulk in the last couple of years.
He was seen first in 2012. Since his ancestry in unknown, he could be a much younger tiger than we thought.
Yea he has grown significantly and seems to be the youngest out of all the prime males.
here's what i believe personally
1)Yeda Anna (Oldest - out of prime)
2)Wagdoh (Old - out of prime)
3)Basant Bandhara (Old - out of prime, last sighted in 2013 and hasn't been seen since) my guess is that he's in the Bufferzone.
4)Shivaji (Old - out of prime)
5)Saturn (Prime animal but took a serious beating to his ego by Katezari)
6)Katezari (Prime animal)
7)Pandu (Prime animal - no resident status, wanders around occasionally)
8)Unknown male from Bufferzone (looks like an Adult male and right in his prime - sadly, I wasn't able to figure out what part of Bufferzone he's from)
9)Leopard face (Prime - doesn't back down from a fight)
10)Veer - Son of Shivaji (should be reaching his prime but being in Kolsa range, we can't follow him)
11)Shiva - Son of Wagdoh (still a bit of a stretch from his prime) - confined to Jamunbodi but wanders around - no resident status yet.
12)New male of Teliya lake (If i were to guess, i'd say he's not older than 3.5 years and should be going in his prime after Monsoon)
13)Pasha (should be reaching his prime, somewhere in the Bufferzone)
14) Sub adult seen in Pandherpauni (probably not even 3 years old yet, too young)

this map shows how big of a territory Wagdoh has under his control. (Probably kicked the resident male out of Agarzari too, he was filmed mating with an unknown tigress in Agarzari) and He moves from Junoona bufferzone, all the way to Agarzari and occasionally goes to Teliya lake.
