There is also a rumor that Jai has been sighted but it is far from confirmed and most are waiting for real verification before celebrating. Sarosh Lodhi This post is to clear the misunderstanding regarding sighting of Jai, male tiger from UKWLS, in forests of Adilabad, Telangana. The news is not authentic as there is no full proof evidence of sighting of this tiger. As per the DFO of Adilabad, 2 rangers sighted a tiger around the 14th of Dec, which had made some goat kills in the area. It was late in night and positive identification with certainty was not possible. They couldnt ascertain if it was collared or not. Since it was dark, they are not even sure if it was a male or a female. The area of this sighting is close to Tipeshwar, some 4-5 kms away and as such it could have easily been a tiger from that forest. With no positive ID, no collar or gender confirmation and no camera trap images, it cannot be confirmed if the sighted tiger was Jai. We know that every one is waiting with bated breath for Jai to resurface again and we would be extremely glad if it happens in future. We request our members not to post this news on the forum as it is creating misconception and misunderstanding amongst the members.

With not much sightings of the sub adults of Jai, not many tourists are choosing this park which has resulted in lower revenue for the stake holders. Hope that the sightings improve soon so that the locals are not in any kind of trouble making their ends meet. Jan 2016 | Jai's son from T6| UKWLS"

A habitat shot: MP-KTR-T 2 Male Kanha Tiger Reserve, Mandla Dec 2016  *This image is copyright of its original author What a great looking tiger he is, I hope that I'm lucky enough to see him in person. Apparently Chota Munna is actually larger than this guy though David Raju Saw this male & T29 yesterday morning morning drive . what i could make out T2 is bit taller and T29 is Bulkier and bigger than T2.
that sounds like a plan! Kanha, Pench and Tadoba you can't go wrong. I am headed to dubai on the 9th of Jan and i kind of want to make a trip to India but im afraid if i go there, Ill end up staying for longer period and having a huge family doesnt really help so i was planning a trip for Nov-Dec instead.
May is not the preferred month to be in India especially central & north, even the tigers are not going to be in good shape, I hope you've done your research well.

STF concluded in its report submitted to forest department on Monday that big cat was killed for 'sorcery'. Thirteen people, including a government school teacher of Chhindwara district were arrested over a period of a month. The tiger was shifted from Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve to Satpura two years ago. During interrogation, accused confessed the tiger was killed for witchcraft by school teacher Ram Kishore and others under influence of a sorcerer, Sitararam Chouhan, who promised them he can make fast money by performing rituals sitting on a tiger skin. "All fell into a trap and killed the big cat by poisoning it's kill," said a forest officer. Principal chief conservator of forest (PCCF) Narendra Kumar told TOI, "We confirmed the hide belonged to radio-collared tiger translocated from Bandhavgarh reserve." Poachers not only killed the animal, but also extracted oil from its fat for using it as remedy for joint aches and erectile dysfunction, sources said. In a joint operation two months ago, STF of forest department and Satpura Tiger Reserve (STR) confiscated two bottles of suspected tiger fat oil from poachers' network. Oil was seized from Srivas of Sakhai village in Hoshangabad and Yunus from Itarsi. Both were arrested along with 10 others during a month-long operation. Samples have been sent to Centre for Cellular & Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad, and Wildlife Health Monitoring Centre (WHMC), Jabalpur, for DNA tests. Teams have been dispatched to Delhi and other areas for more arrests in the poaching case. Besides oil, officials have sent bone samples for verification.
