Alert and observant animal.The no of prey species is indicative of the presence of predators.I think most of our forests have good no of prey species.

The Leopard has blended in with the surrounding and a casual look would not lead us to see the animal.The Leopard population is reasonably good in India as compared to the bigger Tigers.Good pic.

Good pic of a Gaur quenching its thirst.....with summer approaching water is going to become difficult to get and all animals are going to throng to the limited water holes available in any area.

Probably the Tiger has set its eyes on a Deer!Nagerhole is second only to Jim Corbett in no of Tigers.As Tiger no goes up there is pressure on habitat and the animals stray on to human...

Nice to see such a young one protected by adults.That young one may not have learned to use its trunk yet.We saw a slightly bigger one during our visit to Thekkady.

Nice pic and pose from the Tiger! Tippeswar is less famous compared to the more popular ones.As pointed out by Saktiji this place must flourish with Tigers.

These Gaurs were grazing peacefully at Periyar Tiger Reserve!...PTR must have a good population of Tigers but difficult to spot them like Kabini or Tadoba.The deer species are also quite aplenty...

Its wonderful to get so many LTM in one frame.The faces of the monkeys have come out clearly which is always very tricky to capture.Never knew Agumbe has so many LTMs!
