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.

Clearly majority is against Captivity and it includes some experts as well. This is not matter of sentimental thinking but many other people who are against captivity of t-24 are wise and thinking from mind.
The way t-24 was shift is pure influence of people who drive tourism in RTR.
Sariska one of the most popular place where tiger roamed is now have no or few tiger left. Sariska has potential of becoming one of the major tourist place in india, because it is more closer to New Delhi. The official of Sariska asked for some tiger from RTR but they refuse fearing that they will loose part of wildlife tourist.
RTR has more than 60 tigers and total area is not enough to hold all these but the greedy official of RTR and these hotel lobby owners (Aditya singh) play major role in such decision.
Bittu Shegal is pure business person and Aditya Singh is photographer cum tour operator and hotel owner.
We are not saying T-72 sultan is man eater but it clearly show T-24 was not seen by any eye witness. One more thing stop criticizing all photographer off-course they are less qualified than wildlife experts but better than us.
Anyway, on 28-may-2015 there is hearing in delhi High court, Lets prey t-24 come clean
Sanjay bhaiya, you need to understand the ground reality before thinking of the Sariska Proposal and also. Why would a tiger reserve that faced local extinction not too long ago want a tiger like T24 roaming in their jungle? Almost every tiger reserve in India is crowded and by crowded. I dont mean the animals, Im talking about the humans living in villages inside the park. I read about the Sariska proposal on facebook as well and i honestly thought it was the dumbest idea. Whoever came up with that clearly doesnt know the ground reality. Rehabilitation is not easy, especially for a tiger like T24. he has killed 4 people, isnt that an eye opener and Im not talking about the highly reputed photographers here, im talking about the bad apples that see situations like this and start attacking the scientific community. Honestly these people arent the brightest of the individuals. Some even went as far as saying that the forest guard deserved to die. That is absolutely disgusting and what really is your stance? Where can you possibly relocate a man-killer? Which park would happily accept T24? have you ever thought about that? People are attacking Bittu Sahgal, Aditya Singh, Dr.Valmik thappar for simply going with the idea of captive life for such a tiger? How is that a bad thing? I find it funny how everyone is driven by their ego and fanaticism. People need to start using their heads and really think this through. The 4 people killed are far too many lives, does a human life not mean anything to any of you? And mind you, This has nothing to do with the good photographers. I look up to a lot of them and have been doing that for years but this isnt about them. Its about the expert wannabe commenters on facebook. So badly driven by their fanaticism, face it. A problem tiger like T24 would've been hunted down and destroyed anywhere else in North East India, Central India or South India. He's lucky to be even alive and I honestly aint happy to see him like that but given the circumstances. Id rather have him there than the wild. Just remember, every life matters and this is the best outcome for T24.
