B2 and Other Great Tiger Pics from India

thanks @Ashutosh
I remember T1’s case, it was sad. he had been injured prior in the year (february) he survived that incident, only to die later in the tragic hit and run case. he was a tiger often seen crossing the underpasses and highways. it was a sad ending for such a marvelous tiger that we were able to follow periodically over the years. also you’re right, even though these underpasses are good overall. they have their pros and cons. ultimately i think more of these will help the wildlife tremendously in the years to come. i’m one of those people who started following the lives of these animals a little over 10 years ago or so, population back then was odd 1000 + tigers and in the last decade so much has changed for the better but there are also a lot of issues that need to be addressed. rampant poaching is still one of the biggest threat next to dangerous roads and highways unfortunately.

He is one of the most docile males I have come across in #Bandhavgarh ? and incredibly comfortable around vehicles. Born to Mahaman Female (Sr.) and The Legendary Bheem, this guy covers a sizeable territory in Khitauli and Pachpedhi On several occasions he has been seen mating with Tara, Katibaah, Darrha Bachi and Bajrang’s sister. It is unclear whether the first litter of Tara was fathered by him or Muda Tara Male (or both) ?

I’m not sure if many of you are familiar with Bandhavgarh’s history, it was officially declared a National Park on March/23/1968 and it was widely believed in the 70’s that there were no tigers. Banka was one of the first male sighted in the late 70’s, Banka believed to have been born in the late 70’s took prominence in 1983 and ruled the park until 1991. Charger, who most of us know appeared and took over from Banka. he ruled the park 1991-1999 & died in (2000). this continued on to B2, Jobhi, Bheem, MR X, Mahaman and countless other males that we now know. all of these tigers are the direct descendants of Banka, Sita and Charger. here is Banka from (1985, all pictures shot from elephant back on 35mm reversal film recovered digitally and minimally processed for color corrections.)

Chota Dadiyal also comes all the way to Junona, however he’s much younger and will be no match to the dominance of Taru in the present day. Chota Dadiyal will have to be very careful. Taru is in his prime and has defeated 4 males since the monsoon with the recent victim being Paras. Nov/2022  *This image is copyright of its original author Raja, son of Shiva and Kuhani.

I wonder how Taru and Rudra would stack up against each other. Also that leg injury of Hirdinala Female is also looking quite bad, was it caused by this 'SK' male? Tough time for her, hope FD officials take prompt action.

At present the Tigress in quarantine under the supervision of veterinarians and expert keepers of Lucknow zoo. At last i feel happy for the Tigress and ? for the foresters.

Prey, predator, camouflage, river, hunting technique, innocence, life, death, a very tense situation, prey was unaware, predator is unsure, total hide and seek game. The most wonderful thing is that one was there to witness it , courtesy Deepak Dhayani ji, one of the best guides of the country. It was scorching heat of the summer and Tigeress was cooling herself in the river and all of a sudden she spotted the deer coming near the river and fully ignorant about the predator waiting to pounce. Tigress further went inside the water and hid herself behind the boulders on the bank of the river. The drama lasted for more than an hour and it was so tense and full of suspense that one cannot describe. These are once in a lifetime moments. Deer was totally unaware of the lurking danger just a few feet away. Such are the ways of nature. A chase which one witnesses once in a lifetime. The moments you live for and the moments you die for. What a situation... what a scenario. Corbett National Park Uttrakhand India Enjoy Dhikala Paar 2022 888 male of Melghat.

It appears the cub had strayed and separated from the mother. Being very young, and unable to hunt on its own, it had taken to scavenging livestock carcass that were dumped in the vicinity. The team scouted the nearby area, looking for the mother or other cubs for nine days, but to no avail. Finally the RRT and forest department team successfully captured the young tigress, conducted it's medical examination, and safely sent it to Kanpur zoo. The operation was a part of WTI's Terai Tiger Project supported by Chester Zoo , U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Uttar Pradesh Forest Department.

Tracking tigers outside protected areas is a happiness of highest order. This #terai tigress along with her sub adult cubs reside on the boundary of Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh states in a small forest patch of the Surai Conservation Area adjoining the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve. They live along the dry nullahs and hide in the culverts and sugarcane fields and 'try' to coexsist alongwith disturbing human neighbors. Encounters do happen - mostly positive rarely conflicts.
