Lengend!
The tiger in the image is the popular male from Waghdoh, Tadoba. He is known quite a Casanova since his successful courtship with two females resulting in the birth of a total of 7 cubs in a gap of barely a few weeks. Not just that, he once again hogged limelight when he was seen regularly spending time with his offspring through the hot summer months. Then came the rains and other reasons for which the park remained closed for over 3 months.
The long 3 months passed by, I was back at Tadoba last week. With the jungle lush green and the undergrowth thick, sightings were expectantly low. However, the Waghdoh male tiger was there to ensure that our spirits didn't go too low! It was very heartening to see him come out of the season victorious and keep his very large territory intact. The good old tiger never fails to impress.
