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.

Himalayan tigers would be much bigger 

You think so? They are just so hard to spot. I just recently saw images of Pakka Reserve tigers and they look huge. Have you seen southern indian tigers?

Ya? I'll look out for pakka... There are nice lodges everywhere and also outside the reserve in corbett but better to stay inside the park in corbett! Very cheap but no luxury or amenities and simple food , however nothing like the park anywhere else 

Raja looks extremely tall and very strong, I keep hearing they are smaller than Other tigers, but he looks plenty large to me.

No have not but lots of friends in the south

Yes I felt the same but no concrete evidence on size and weight to compare Wow, you really are making me want to go to Corbett now. It wasnt even on my radar Indeed, Raja, Ram and their Father Agasytha were all so impressive on film. Especially the gaur kill by raja. He is becoming one of my favorite tigers to see.

Very hard to get booking inside for corbett that's why it not on many peoples radar and not many have seen inside Great info Kanwar. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. It means a lot. I will definitely stay in touch and be speaking to you about booking in the near future. If you ever have any questions about the US or want to visit. I can recommend great areas for you as well.

He was very adement that Corbett and Kaziranga have the largest Tigers. Most other areas have large tigers like he has mentioned, but none compare to Kaziranga or Corbett. As well as he specifically mentions the coat color as being lighter there as well. 

I also found it very interesting that he said Himalayan Tigers are the largest.

Alright, I just asked him.
When I asked Amit, he was a little apprehensive and then he saw his images and was very surprised. I told him that we always try to give credit to the photographers. Let make sure that we continue, they work so hard and the least we can do is give credit where its do. 
Its been great having Vijay here, and the more naturalists that would post, the better. That is for sure.

Yes, True words. Photographers and original content owners should get all the credits.

Pckts, ask them, if they are not happy to have their photos here, We will remove them.
You can leave message to Amit or anyone else saying that we will remove any images, if they do not want.

Amit didnt have a problem with it, he was just surprised.
The reason he wasn't a fan of the forum from the old days, once I sent him to this forum, he searched through the entire B2 and Tiger tread and the Tiger directory thread. I just think Amit wasn't to into the whole Forum thing. But to each their own.
I sent Kanwar the tiger directory link, he said he will check it out. I think Kanwar may be more open to joining from talking to him.
I think they like having their photos here, it helps bring them more notority. We just need to make sure to credit them on top of it, just my opinion.
