Royal Family of Kakarghat, Kolsa Range- Tadoba Tiger Reserve, Maharashtra- India
Tiger's socialism do occur. Male tigers roam their territories & visit tigress & cubs that they meet during their patrol. They share the same kills & really tolerate sub adults cubs that is evident in this image. Even male sub adult tigers mix well with their fathers, share space in the kills. 'Secret Life of Tigers' by Valmik Thapar also hints at many such incidents in Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve.
This image is a snapshot of an entire drama worth of 90mins duration... shot in a corner of Kolsa, Tadoba Tiger Reserve. The entire family of 6 slept-drank-played-bathed-tried to hunt together. A remarkable footage captured in image & video. Best is that they were not disturbed by other tourists around. They were themselves all through.
This is the same picture that appeared in SANCTUARY ASIA- december 2009 Issue. Meet me also at: http://bagherdaak.blogspot.com/
