Why I don't see the wave of critics about this statement? When I mentioned my point of view of Sankhala (which I proved extensively) I was almoust banned from this place and even @peter was included, but now that someone mention something negative about Thapar there is only silence, the same that happened with Dr Karanth before.  Double standards?Valmik Thapar is by far the man with more experience with tigers at this day, and at this moment he have very good backup for each one of his claims. About the speed issue, I think that probably it was a typo, as there is no coincidence that the maximum speed that I know is exactly the same the quote which is "60", but instead of miles it should be km, that is all. I will get the book of Thapar "Tiger portrait of a predator" which includes the history of Genghis, I will see if he mention any speed measurement or maybe the figure of 60 kph came from the observations of others. I have saw videos of Genghis running and it is an explosive rush that last much more than the normal attack of any other tiger that I had saw. In fact, it is more impresive than the running of the tigress of Mr Antle in the video. |
