Thanks for the video.
Its really nice to see the interaction between Katezari and Gabbar.
Katezari comes to a waterhole first, but after seeing Gabbar he started moving away in the water by giving Gabbar the space.
Gabbar got into the water and started relaxing.
This interaction shows that Gabbar is the more dominant male of the two.
Katezari moved in a slower pace, Gabbar seemed relaxed and both the males had a watchful eye on each other. This shows there is a degree of respect between both the males (eventhough Gabbar looked dominant).
It would have been great if the cameraman had caught both the males in the same shot or moved the camera continously to show both the male's presence in a single shot.

How do we know what happened?
You never see both tigers in the same shot, it could be one of katezari swimming and a seperate one of Gabbar resting, etc.
You would need to see what the eye witness says about the occurance before we come to any conclusions about the incident. They could be from different days for all we know.


 



 

I too initially had the same thought, but after carefully seeing the video for several times, I found the lighting, shadow and the way the camera was shaking all to be similar. I also dont see why Katezari as to turn and see several times unless there was something.
Recently Katezari and Gabbar had a skirmish, so adding all together I came to this conclusion. But I did mention in my previous post that it would have been nice to see them in the same shot.

 


 

I know Gabbar and the new young male had a fight whichl gabbar took the worst of, I have not heard from anybody about a Gabbar vs Katezari Skirmish, that I have seen at least. Its far to inconclusive to try and determine if the "shadow" is in the same area. Also, Tigers are wild animals so they are always looking around their surroundings, at least from what I have seen. I will check out he Tadoba page, they will most likely have something on this if it occured, but usually when two males interact, many photographers are commenting and providing narration on it. I would think especially with these two famous boys, there will be much info if it did actually happen.


 

 

Regarding the fight between Gabbar and the new young male, it happened some time back.
Im talking about the recent fight or skirmish between Katezari and Gabbar, where Gabbar got is nose injured.
