Little bit on the first girls "The sisters of Telia"



The Girl’s Gang
The famous sisters of telia
which was the highlight of TADOBA for quite a few years... 2011 to 2013 to be specific.
Waghdoh or Scarface (Father):- Waghdoh male came towards the telia and yenbodi side of mohurli range from his won waghdoh area. He was massive in size that time and he fought with yeda anna a few guides from mohurli saw this at the kosba lane in mohurli range. He killed madhuri’s 3 cubs and forced her to mate with him.
We'll this mating was not as easy as it sounds..... Waghdoh being such a huge male as compared to madhuri. Hard to believe but this mating went for more than 60 days at the telia lake.... And at last it was successful. Waghdoh was now the dominant male of Moharli zone a new king with a massive size and we can call him more Social and carrying Father. . Scarface had seemingly moved with Madhuri and still provides the security which every tigress seeks.
Madhuri (Mother):- Madhuri was born in 2006 and daughter of Laxmi in a prime area of the park, with her brother and sister. In 2009 when her mother and Madhuri, spent 24 hours stalking and eventually killing a sambar deer besides Telia Lake. It was battle for both predator and prey and lasted right through the night, as the hemmed in deer got caught between Telia Lake, a crocodile and the tigress and her daughter. The result was inevitable. When Laxmi her mother left to have another family with Yedda Anna (Crooked tail), she saw space in the Yenbodi, Telia lake and Kosba dam area of the Moharli range. Madhuri is one of the ‘faces’ of Tadoba. Together with the Panderpauni female called Nira, helped to launch Tadoba upon an unsuspecting and uninterested world. Now Madhuri was the Queen of Telia. In 2011 she gave birth to Four Cubs many thought that this is madhuris 1st litter but that was not the fact..... She earlier in 2010 had a litter of 3 tiny cubs fathered by YEDA ANNA which was later killed by Waghdoh male after that in 2011 Madhuri delivered a litter of 4 cubs and surprisingly all 4 females her four gorgeous female cubs, Mona, Geeta, Lara and Sonam. And then began the telia show. These girls rocked the tourism zone of mohurli range they shared, played, stalked and killed in and around the Telia Lake and its ever changing shoreline. Chital deer and wild boar flirted death with their desire to eat the lush grasslands of the shoreline but most escaped the inexperienced ambushes of the young sisters. A feat of fine motherhood with powerful and loving support from their father Scarface
It was literally a wild zoo..... Go see and come. These girls never disappointed any tourist. They were bold, unlike their mother and especially 2 cubs who were never afraid to come close to a gypsy or a forest guard’s bike. It was Round officer (RO) of mohurli range who knew in and out of these cubs. We used to call him as Father of Telia sisters. He was never ever scared of them and even the cubs were equally friendly with him. What a dedicated man he is.
Later these cubs grew up and in 2013 the conflict between them was clearly seen.
I saw all the 5 together in April 2013 which was possibly the last sighting of all 5 together. Madhuri moved to buffer area of mohurli and in 2014 she was spotted with 4 new cubs, and again in 2016 she was spooted with a new litter of cubs and Scarface is father of all this cubs.
Sonam: - Sonam the name came from the S mark on her neck one of the more boisterous females has taken most of her mother’s territory, and Madhuri was matured enough to leave the area and move to the buffer zone, as she knew she had to defend telia with 4 of her daughter's and Madhuri had decided to reside more in the dense mixed buffer zones of her forest territory, south west of the Telia dam region. Now soman has a litter of 3 and she seems to be a much matured mother just like her mother.
Lara: - The name came from The L mark on her right side of face. She is sighted near Waghdoh area and some time at Jamunjora area. She is now a mother too.
Mona: - She has M mark on her left side of face... no idea of her after getting separated from her sister and mother.
Geeta: - She had G mark on her Right side of face... No idea of her too after splitting.
