The Terai Tiger

[Roflcopters]

I second that, how do you tell the difference between a dude that’s 6”6 or 6”9 just by looking at a picture. everyone is built differently, same way it works for tigers. tigers from Central India are generally shorter in length and height as compared to the individuals in the North and this isn’t an opinion, it’s facts. there is no way to really tell the difference just by looking at pictures so i think if anything you’re contradicting yourself from your own statements. you’re basically doing a comparison in your own head and you’re seeing them even. there’s a lot of factors. I think what matters the most is the eye witnesses more than the pictures themselves. when KZT023’s picture was posted, Kanwar Juneja had already seen most of the big males from Central India and he had made it clear. they did not even compare, not even Prime Wagdoh, Bamera or any of the males from Central India for that matter. Dr.Raghu Chundawat himself witnessed 3 living legends and performed check ups on them and he himself admits, the Northern Breed is on a level of it’s own, Dr. Valmik Thappar has been involved for many decades and his biggest bengal tiger he ever saw was from Kaziranga. statements like that are legendary because they have seen tiger from almost every part of the country and they’re able to tell the obvious. also based on records. whatever i have said supports this. in all honesty, i think it’s the Central Indian tigers that are slightly overrated just because they’re followed the most. i believe tigers from South and Central are more or less rivals in size, Northern Bengals are just different al together, body patterns, height, longer body and just overall larger animals. this is undeniable. what’s the most overrated tiger in India right now? I think the answer is obvious and those Kanha Fanboys are responsible for it, no wonder i can’t follow the TOK group. I’m all for learning but all the bullcrap fanatcism isn’t really my cup of tea. I’m neutral but i do know the very obvious and i do acknowledge what i see and have seen. tigers from Terai and Assam are uncontested and not many tigers from South or Central India can compare on average.


also i’m willing to bet anything (if you prove me wrong, i’ll paypal you money.)

we were the very first group of people back in yuku days that did picture comparisons and i’m talking back in 2007-2008. once i realized how flawed that concept was, we abandoned the ship. It’s not all just pictures, it’s also what the eye witnesses have seen. every tiger from every park is different and that’s a fact. there is no way those Kanha/Pench tigers compare to the likes of Gulrighat, KZT023, KZT085, Sathiana range male or Kauvia Ghatia. they sit comfortably on top and are the best representatives of their kinds. the record breaking specimens have also been recorded from Up North. you can also turn this argument any way you like, even the prey density supports this, nicer habitat, tall grass and bigger prey selection. It’s all tipped in the favor of Northern Males.


just my two cents. Reply
