It was 3 in the morning. What would a wildlife enthusiast do? I decided to go to UKWLS (most nearby).

Park is open to public only at 6:30 am. I reached there 2 hours in advance. 



Meanwhile, I was wandering in the BUFFER (Non tourism) area.

Suddenly, i could sense some animal around. As I flashed the car's headlight - There he was - The one and only - BITTU

Insomnia is good for junglists

Bittu: 
Male cub to the legendary parents - Tigers Jai and T6.Bittu, lived in Gothangaon range within UKWLS with his parents . Now 3 years old, Bittu relocated to Brahmapuri range..

“Once upon a time in Tadoba“
Almost 7 years back this male tiger ruled the Tadoba zone from Navegaon to Kholhara buffer. In nature a shy male, he would avoid the tourist vehicles. He is the father of Matakasur, Maya, Junabai and many more. He was the one who fought with Gabbar and gave him lifelong facial scars. 
Not to sideline the female in the frame, she belonged to Moharli zone and was the mother of the famous circuit family including Ookhan, Choti-Tara, Madhuri and others. She came all the way from Moharli range and matted with this male. Its interesting to see how well the Tigers spread their gens far way. This image is from the matting series of January , 2012.

Whatever the definition of a legend may be, Uma male would squarely fall into that. That day he was visibly angry on jackals who interrupted in his meal. T-30, Kanha, Oct 2017
