Male tiger from Kaziranga.

The photographer says
[align=-webkit-center]"When first spotted around Jan 2014, I thought this male was doomed for sure... his right ear was missing, right eye was closed and the hole on his forehead could accommodate a ping pong ball. At first I thought it ws caused by a wild buff but closer scrutiny made it look suspiciously like a bullet hole. He limped across a sand bank across the Brahmaputra.... not to be seen again. In January 2015 he sat by the forest path in the fast fading light.... looking at me for about 4/5 minutes before crossing over for a drink. He is a fighter..... probably one of the noblest fighters on this planet. May the one eared braveheart's roar reverberate across the glens and forest paths till he dies a natural death. I am sure his spirit will never die as long as this fabulous land is allowed to exist by us... humans."[/align]
