That's why he is robust and stocky with proportionately huge forearms. Oh you are trying to say that he has assam tiger genes? That may also be right. But my first preference is it has sunderban genes. Bhutan tigers are big but not as robust as these two groups. So my guess is No.   Dude i live in Kolkata (DAT huge red blot on map) <50 miles away from Sundarban (marked 4 on map)!!!Neora Valley is the northernmost forest patch (marked 1 on map)...  *This image is copyright of its original author Now lemme put in a population density map of FAO (the green square, U can see the boundary to relate)..   *This image is copyright of its original author If U read the news articles in my last post, u'll see NTCA authorised tiger relocation from Assam to Jaldapara (marked 3 on map) & Buxa Tiger Reserve (marked 4 on map)..Cuz they r part of d SAME North-East India Tiger population!! U can go see from Assam tigers discussion dat tigers of Manas (marked 5 on map) are physically atleast as impressive as the Kaziranga dweller that fascinates everyone in dis forum.. Now, these forests r fragmented in India, but adjoining Bhutan has continous Forest tracks & acts as corridors as well as local population source... ALL THESE TIGERS ARE SIMILAR IN SIZE & STATURE, BEING PART OF A CONTAGIOUS GENE-POOL!!! There is no notable difference between them..we r talking two sides of a border, not Terai & Kalakkad-Mundanthurai
