"Jai - The lone traveller , poached or migrated " -
While this legend male's disappearance is making news everywhere , 100 brave heart members from various NGOs and group are searching across the forest of umred karandla .
There are around 20 tigers missing around Tadoba andhari tiger reserve buffer zone which include famous female called Katrina of buffer zone , Shivaji from kolsa , Male cubs of Wagdoh , Lohara Male tiger , Male tiger from Ghosri and much more according to various forums and social media experts .Either we can claim that they are poached or they might have migrated we can't ignore any of the facts .
Facts which need to be understood that forest department does not disclose locations of tigers , tiger migrate a lot so monitoring them every time practically is not possible with current facilities that forest guards have , With a two wheeler and a stick accompanied by a local forest labour they are asked to watch & monitor tiger .
A loud noise is always made on social media and other forums to spread news , awareness and some use them as publicity tools , like the way they have used the famous tiger from Ranthambore called " Ustad " but the fact which always needs all your focus and attention is forcing system to provide the protectors better facilities to protect our tigers or we the people should come forward to help them in this .
Jai is not the alone tiger which is missing . Every year around 10 to 15 new tigers are born and noticed nearby tatr and what happens to them is still not known . We need to protect forest and help forest guards who are protecting them . Its very easy to comment , post , like here on social media forum but the job on fields are really tough .
This is my take on this current missing case of Jai . Even I want this Male tiger to be back , but also want each and every wild tiger to be protected and safe .

sanjay,

I agree with you 100%. Its very very disturbing and sad. When such high profile tiger disappear we all understand the seriousness. I have been going to tadoba since last few years regularly and always wondered whats happening to so many cubs born each year ( currently there are 20-25 cubs in TATR). they either migrate or get poached. shame on human beings !

In fact I was just talking to my friend from Umred area. They spotted all but Jai in last few days. The last photo of Jai is of 16 april in a camera trap in pawani range as I understand. He had gone to bramhapuri range and retuned by that time. His collar also malfunctioned due to high tension wires in the area. He was traveling in direction of pench then. Aftee that no trace of him.

praying to God to keep him safe. One of the most beautiful creature I have ever seen ! Reply
