And not just the males...
Here's a female from Indian Terai.

It looks like Amur tiger

I know. She's from Corbett. That population has most "Amur"looking tigers of all Terai.

In winter the only difference that remains is Bengal tigers' darker coat.

Are there more photos of Amur looking male Bengal tigers especially those from Terai region?

Posts #182, #185 etc also had good specimens.

Images taken in winter.
