In regards to size, he said the Rayakassa male is a little smaller than Mangu of Bandhavgarh.
He'll have a few photos posted soon.

Here's one of his shots of Rayakassa

End to a couple of days of safari in Pench.. The Rains played a spoilt sport and the sightings were a bit low than expected. Saw a couple of tigers and a couple of leopards overall. The highlight was this beautiful male Rayyakassa who crossed the road twice in front of us. It was amazing to see this beautiful one for over 45 minutes. 

We have just reached Kanha and have 4 amazing days of safaris lined up.. finally back to my favourite forest to wind up this safari season..

@Rage2277 Thanks for the correction. But I didn't feel he is big though. The picture was from an article writing about satpura reserve. That's why I was mislead.

What an incredible morning safari.. Chota Munna sitting on the road.. first chased a sambar deer. Then a herd of Bison... followed by Dhawajhandi female with cub.

He said CM is very skinny right now and was really hungry, he failed at a Sambar then charged Gaur but was unsuccessful on both, summer months are tough on these cats.

Its turning out to be a dream safari tour at Kanha. After seeing Chota Munna (attempting to kill), Dhawajhandi Female + 2 cubs and Sandukkhol Female yesterday, today morning it was time for Naina with 4 cubs.. 5 safaris 10 tigers. 2 more to go... !!

First ride at kanha after a gap of two years & its mid May, you are all geared up & though guide says Sarahi zone doesnt have much sighting yet when you get to see a tiger in sarahi you see it in best way; & gypsy start rolling on hilly roads, you cross one up & a huge male tiger is walking leisurely ahead, marking his territory! For a split second it moves away from road & the gypsy goes past him giving you head shots, you cant believe your luck, its dhamangaon male aka yuvraj, a very less photographed tiger, guide tells you, but you are engrossed in his massive yet graceful strides even the way he sits!! The knaha trip has started with bang, more to follow!...Kanha May 18.

Kanha has never sent me back without tiger sighting & indeed kanha sals' has a lot more to offer than just tigers yet to see a tiger in kanha is always a specia experience! May be just like the water of Himalayas tastes sweeter, so is sighting of tiger in kanha & this time the Dhamangaon male aka Yuvaraj obliged me with probably every angle you can click a tiger, really Sarahi zone rocks when it plays the tune! Here is one more pose or say mood of him...May 18

He looks like he's putting on a lot of size, his head is much larger than I remember.

Yes.. He is Khali.. He was very Shy but now in April and May 2018 he was very active in Agarzari and Devada zone. 
He was actually in Padmapur zone which is non tourism zone so no one was aware about his whereabouts. 

Thanks for identifying

Many a famous tigers have walked the bunds of the famed babathenga but none as famous as this guy. he has the genes of the legend " munna" and is fondly called as "Chota Munna" and is an apt name for this guy. Had seen him as a 2 year old in the Kanha meadows and since then he has moved on to the warfields of Mukki and has survived and is ruling over a large part which is testimonial to the genes he has.
Long live the king.

Unexpected Safari at Turia, Pench

It was a wonderful morning safari where we got to sight a new male #tigerthat to head-on and for two hours near water body. He looks like BMW ( but he is not) he should be approx 6-7 years old huge and bold. 
This is not the end moving further towards the collarwali territory.. We got a bonus to sight Collarwali on kill...
In short today's morning safari was full of unexpected moments and sights.

The newly sighted male could be the culprit of Rayakassa's wounds but no way of knowing for sure.

An amazing video of Munna in his prime! Shot apparently in 2012 hope this hasn't been posted before, perhaps the greatest video I've ever seen of him! He's huge!
