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.

Thanks
 


 

Here is an old image of T-10 (ST-1 of Sariska), borrowed from a few friends in Sariska. There are hardly any images of him from his RTR days since his area was out of bounds for tourists. I'll dig up my archives for images of T-12 (ST-4 of Sariska) shortly.

Happy New year to all and some good news

"Heroes get remembered but Legends never die"

Machli's (T16) obituary had been written & re-written umpteen number of times (her recent fight with Sultan prompted another one), her frequent forays out of the park threw caution to the winds, her death looked imminent.

Like in the past, just as she was being written off yet again, Tigress Machli (T-16) chose to make an appearance ! She was sighted on the late evening of 11th December by a handful of tourists at her erstwhile territory in zone-5 of Ranthambhore. How long she survives remains to be seen though.

Name               : T42 = Fateh = Kuwalji male
Location          : Ranthambore National Park
Year of Birth   : Unknown
Ancestry          : Son of Jhumroo male and Jail Kho female
Status              : Live
Gender             : Male
Species             : panthera tigris tigris

Fateh was one of the three cubs born to Jhumroo and Jail Kho female (T30). T42 was broughtup in the Jail Kho and Indala regions which are located outside the main tourism zone, hence his childhood is not known. 

After reaching maturity Fateh moved to Kuwalji region located in the souternmost part of Ranthambore, where he challenged the dominant resident male T36. This confrontation resulted in the death of T36 in 2012 and Fateh took over the Kuwalji area. Later he started courting with T37 (the sister of T36 who Fateh killed) but unfortunately she died in 2013 due to some health issues.

T42 was said to be a very aggressive male and definitely not the one for the light hearted. He was seen charging several tourist vehicles during 2012/2013 period and once said to have chased a forest department vehicle for 2Kms. Fateh came to limelight after the famous video which showed him charging and chasing a tourist vehicle. Nonetheless he was a great looking male and a one to be looked in the future.

Hmm, sorry, this is spectacular (I like the way they are walking at the same time in parallel), but in my opinion this is rather a skirmish than a real fight...

Its a fight and we dont get to watch the whole thing. Just because neither dies doesn't mean its not a fight. Big cats can do a lot of damage in a short "skirmish"

OK... This was a prelude of a real fight. Both tragic and beautiful.

The Boss, SHIVAJI.This image was taken in 2012 , Post that Kolsa zone was restricted till 2014. I havent heard and seen pictures of Shivaji after that. Does anybody had sighted Shivaji post 2014???I cant wait to see him again..Truly the most handsome tiger i have ever seen.

Ranveer Singh Gautam "Chandrashekhar Ramachandran he has not been poached , he is still alive , and has been seen near the boundaries of kolsa , news as per the locals and forest guards that moves inside the park"


Take it for what its worth, no confirmation from eye witnesses but hopefully Ranveer is in close communication with the eye witnesses who have seen him, allegedly. Either way, apparently he has shifted his location.
