Thin Stripe male.. came from Pench in 2010 , killed Chain male and took over Minkur. He mocked the kanha breed for 4 years, showing the power of the Pench's Charger's line. And then Uma male showed him the power of Munna's lineage and took him out, a very fitting ending for TS.. Then he fought with kankata in june 2013 but kk also defeated him.
2013 was his last season . but he was surely good looking & huge tiger.
Minh Ha plz update some more info about him if u have.
sorry for pic quality

Two Massive males of Kanha .
Kankata ( in front ) and Thin Stripe. (second )
Kankata is known as one of the most Dominating male of Kanha. we used to called him Fighter mostly . Coz he was always ready to fight with other tigers. 2015 Was his last season. Gt vanished in air. Nobody knows where he gone. There are many if and but I heard but dont have proper evidence. Its Still a mystery for me.

So I assume that they are calling Red Eye male, Thin Stripe?

Red-eye; Kanha, June 2015. This tiger gets its name because of the red scar (under left eye) picked up during a scuffle with another one. Great sighting in a steady drizzle in Kanha.

In regards to the fight with Kankatta, we know that Red Eye male or "thin stripe" as he is being called, was double teamed by kankatta and his female...

But I spoke with @sahil ak about some tigers and other information, here is what he had to say

I asked about bheema's size, kfs size and kahna tigers in general
Sahil Ak said:
"now days bheema is one of the most dominating tiger in kanha's mukki range. now he is 5 yrs old. he was weighted 260 kg when he was just 2 years. and still he is gaining . he is son of kankata who was also the one of the great tiger kanha ever hd. there are few more male like umarpani male and link 7 male. they both are Munna's littrs one of the biggest dominator of entire kanha.. but from 2 different females.. as compare to all of them , kingfisher is quite below in number. he looks huge by side just becoz of his big bulky belly. still he is suffering to make own territory. some people used to say kingfisher is huge tiger but it not right.. Bheema is taller and having great mass , umarpani is huge in size and looks so big coz of huge face.. and link 7 male is just muscular tiger i can say. no bulky nor thin.. just perfect shaped tiger like munna. but he is still young than all of the. as compare to these 3 kingfisher is not as huge or not dominator even like them.

"

Obviously what jumped out immediately was the "260kg mark at 2 years old"
I asked who weighed him

"Bheema was weighet by forest dept while colloring him."

I wonder if @Vijay Rajan has any info about this as well?

But either way, @Sahil AK has joined the forum and I for one look forward to his contributions as well.
