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.

Pl mind your business!
We found this buddy just 10-12 feet distance next to a trail. It was on the verge of crossing the trail just that our vehicle blocked his way! He patiently waited while we took some up & close portrait images. Finally he got up and walked across the trail indicating us to mind our business!

To all,
Spoke to a couple of naturalists from Tadoba, this behaviour displayed by Matka and Chota Matka is highly unusual semi symbiotic behaviour. Both have scars and seems like Chota Matka was also struggling to hunt, no one can confirm the same though. A couple of theories here suggested by the naturalists:

1. Matkasur has been tolerating Chota Matka, whom he has kept on his guard possibly discouraging other tigers.

2. Both have possibly been fighting with the young Shivanzari Male

Also @sanjay, thank you. I will share a detailed account of whatever I see. My last trip entailed an amazing sighting of Sonam causing massive panic amongst a herd of Gaur  and Maya killing a gaur. This was back in 2016.

Also I am only visiting Tadoba this summer, but if the opportunity permits I shall try visiting Kanha and more specifically targeting the Mukki zone. If it does materialize I would best describe it as "The Hunt for Umarpani". 

Lastly could anyone shed light on the famous circuit gang, I am unable to find any information with regards to the same, I was only 18, 6 years back I'm guessing when they were the talk of the park.

Thank you
I Think from Circut Gang only Choti Tara is in Tadoba ( Jamni) ... Ookhan established Territory  towards Bramhapuri Forest Division , Other 2 Perished..

Matka & Chota Matka are roaming in same territory.. even Maya is allowing Chota Matka  i Think ( earlier they had clash)  , they might be fighting  not only Shivanzari sub adult , but also other Young Males like Kuwani Sub Adult ( Mowgli), Ginaji, Devoda Sub Adult, we never know whats happening in Non Tourism Area... 

With All these intruders its Tough for Maya , Choti Tara and there Cubs....
