One of the most handsome male tiger's of Tadoba.

The Madhkasur male (Old) aka Namdeo made this image in 2011 when he was sighted for the very 1st time by any tourist, He was Mating with Naakkati or Tara (Choti Tara's mother).

A male tiger was recently seen chasing Dholes, and probably even killed one while in the bushes. He then briefly came out on the Khutvanda fire line and then crossed the Khutvanda Road to head towards Aswalheera. This was on the morning of Nov 4, 2016.
We were later able to identify the tiger as Bajrang. Bajrang's previously known range was up to Aswalheera, in Moharli range. He probably has been crossing the Khatoda Gate and coming into Tadoba range since long before, but probably has been documented with a surety for the first time.
The photograph here shows him on the Khutvanda fire line, next to the turn on the tar road, just before reaching the Khatoda Gate from Tadoba side.

Maya was seen courting with a very shy male yesterday evening (Oct 25, 2016) (and even mated with him in the afternoon according to the forest guards) on the road that leads to 97 waterhole. This male is known as Bobdya (because of a missing canine), but still guards and guides reported him as Madkasur and Pandu to the guests. He is quite short in height, has loops on both flanks, lower left canine is missing, right ear has a cut and is extremely shy. He was seen a few times last season, once courting with Choti Tara at Chital Road (Nov 2015), a few times at P2 with Maya and cubs (summer of 2016) and a couple of times at Ain Body and 97 waterhole (June 2016).
The image was clicked when the male mock-charged at a vehicle.

This male was photographed with choti tara in Feb 2016 and was called navageon male. I don't know if they mistook the name, but the male in the photo was the same guy as in the post.

Minh Ha He's the same size as Gabbar and Yeda Anna and has Yeda Anna look.

Arpit Parekh Minh Ha This male is definitely not a size of yeda anna or gabbar. he is smaller compared to these males.
