By the way, are there news about T-72 ?? I know he is (was) missing from Ranth along with another 15 tigers, acording to dailymail.
India cares about its tigers, but I think much more could be done. Dr Ullas Karanth said in a recent interview  that India could be home to 10.000 tigers. It would be  a dream to see it happen.
It looks like both Nepal and Russia have better programmes than India right now. Russia aims to double its tigers in a short period of time , and I firmly believe they will do it, if they continue to work in the same way. I do not know how is the situation in Nepal after the earthquake, but they were also doing an excellent job. I have read somewhere that there was an overpopulation in Chitwan and the authorities were looking another place to relocate tigers. These actions makes me think that there is still place in the wild for the most beautiful and magnific animal on Earth.
 

 

 i am pretty sure Waghdoh will be seen soon. Also T-72 is said to have seen in a naerby MP forest area called sheopur. not sure.  that aera is 70 kms away. But with so many tigers missing, there is surely somthing terribly wrong.

 

Some more Waghdoh news and the final part of the Ranth news from most recent trips
"Raghavendran Kandaswami Waghdoh's area in Core never entered the boundaries of Jamni, neither has he ever ventured as far as Kolara where the incident occurred, even when he was in Core, Shailesh Naik... It is unlikely that he will ever move back to Core, particularly Telia. He was last seen in Dewada and apparently got into a row with another male after which he was seen with minor injuries... I have seen his pugmarks close to Adegaon village by the end of season... That photograph was shot by Gajanan Bapat and is certainly a much older photograph that any recent one by him...7 hrs · Like"


 Tiger Trackers with Vijayarajan Muthu and 30 others13 hrs · Hey All,Here is the final part of the summary of the season that got over in Ranthambhore. We hope you take your time to go through the entire post.Sultan (T-72) : After Ustad’s unfortunate eviction, Sultan was widely believed to make a comeback to claim the vacant territory. However, he hasn’t been sighted by the Forest Patrol team since the last couple of months. Needless to mention, his sightings dried up since last summer due to the fact that he established territory in the periphery of the park which lies outside the tourism zones. Although there have been talks within the Forest Department to create Tourism Zone-11 which falls in Sultan's territory, official confirmation is awaited. Needless to mention, Machli, the Grand Old Lady does reside in the same area too & we wish the zone is opened for tourists so that apart from direct sightings, any untoward incidents could also be reported to the FD, a win-win situation if at all it materializes.While Sultan's territory adjoins a village notorious for disappearance of Tigers he could either be lurking around in his home range. One also cannot rule out the possibility of his departure from Ranthambhore to other forested areas in search of a mate as well as territory. Although the FD hasn’t been forthcoming in this matter we hope & pray that he is safe and shall keep you posted on Sultan as soon as official word is out on his whereabouts.
