Tiger Directory

[Pckts]

If that is the case, this is the first father-son battle in Ranthambhore that has been reported.
At least that I am aware of.
It seems that it doesn't matter what territory a Tiger lives in, when #'s increase (like in Ranth) tigers need to fight for territory. Even if it is there own blood.
If T24 was going to loose eventually, its good that it was to his own son who is quite the impressive specimen.
Maybe Ranth never had  a father-son fight before because the tiger population was soo much smaller than it is now. With successful protection needs to come territory growth or else protecting them will own increase fights if they don't allocate more land to them. We can't build towns all over the country and then say, "OH, we will give them 20 acres of land and call it a Sanctuary".
They need huge areas with unaltered corridors or else conservation will always come a little short. IMO Reply
