Mammoth sized male tiger from the Chilla range of Rajaji National park, I wonder if those pugmarks belonged to this male.

Terai Males are absolutely amazing, they look to be very long and robust tigers.
Where does that landscape line up with assam/kaziranga? Reply

Some Corbett Tigress' compliments of Sanjeet Mangat

"New entrant"

This trip to Bijrani was incredible as we got to spot a new tigress in that zone .... this one is different to the other 4 that have been documented in this zone as resident females ...

"Queen"Very few tigers run a park/zone solely by themselves .... this is one such example .... Sharmele of Bijrani ... her dominant son is also a sight to see ... being raised into a handsome hulk ....Bijrani, Corbett Tiger Reserve

Terai Arc Landscape map

here's another map, Assam tigers are far east compared to the Terai tigers that are Northern and the Ranthambore tigers are considered North Western, some of the tiger reserves aren't shown on this map. Reply

Very interesting @Roflcopters.
So Terai Tigers seem to be closer to Corbett Tigers than Kaziranga, right?

Kaziranga is almost landlocked from other areas that are populated by tigers. You would know much better than I, just seems that way from looking at the images.
Thanks again, Copters. Reply
