There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I don't know about the tigers, as far I know they burn the wild tigers when they died.
Paper says: Gross anatomical study was conducted on humerus of 5 adult tigers of either sex, two procured from Department of Wildlife Health and management and three from Department of Veterinary Anatomy and Histology, College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, Madhya Pradesh Pashu Chikitsa Vigyan Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur (M.P.) India.
For me, it sound that all are captive, it is easier to get them, but I may be wrong. One of us should try to contact the authors and make sure. Is just a suggestion, and also to get the sex of the specimens.
