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.

Tadoba and pench have high populations of boar, chital and sambar, all are high up on the predatory importance. Even big males hunt these species, not as common as females for obvious reasons but they still hunt them and thus have no difficulty doing so. But the fact that they also have larger prey means that you see even larger cats though, but you don't see this difference in the females for some reason.
Maya in Tadoba is a small tigress yet she's actually hunted Gaur successfully and arrowhead in Ranth. Is a small tigress and yet she's hunted Sambar successfully as well.
Regarding cattle grazing, Khumba is a notorious cattle taker as well as many ranth. Tigers but for whatever reason he doesn't have that stocky look. But I'm with you that some can have a stocky look, just not many there. T57 comes to mind for me but that's my point, when they look stocky their height doesn't jump put at you due to their large body, Their limbs look short when the large body is closer to the floor.
In regards to Corbett and Ranthambore, my understanding is that they are two very different places with many things unique to the area, especially Corbett. But that being said, most of the Tigers I've seen in Corbett don't impress me with their size but I've heard other opinions saying they have some of the largest tigers. That being said, I've also heard that they are normal sized as well but going off the eye test alone, I've never been overly impressed by many of seen there tbh. But Tiger spotting in Corbett is a completely different animal from Ranthambore.
