Wild Tigers of Ranthambhore | Valmik Thapar, Fateh Singh Rathore
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Tracking the many moods of the tiger, this book traces the progress of efforts to save the magnificent animal in India. Documenting tiger watching in Ranthambhore from the 1970s to the late 1990s, the second, enhanced edition discusses the tiger tragedy of winter-spring 2004-5 and argues for new and more radical initiatives to protect the animal and, by extension, wilderness itself. An impassioned plea for greater involvement of administrators and general public alike, this book is a mustread for tiger enthusiasts, animal lovers, environmentalists, and the general reader.

Lasted winter, I was fortunate enough to land a life long dream and see this magnificent beast manifest in front of our very eyes amongst the enchanting marshes of ranthambore. We ended up seeing this boy - who put up quite a royal show with an utmost non chalance towards his spectators - possibly the mark of a rajah in the making. Thappar is the default when it comes to the Bengal breed and this fantastic read served as a great field guide.
