An exciting expedition to the Bandhagarh Tiger Reserve in the heart of India! The authors show you the elusive tigers of India as few people have ever seen them. The most powerful predatory cat in the world rules the wilderness, and is a master of camouflage. We take a close look at how the Indian tiger lives, how it hunts and mates, but also the dangers that threaten it and daily life in the nature reserve.
Admiration, dread, and fascination shape the relationship between man and tiger. The Bandhavgarh tiger reserve in the Tala region is among the few forested wildernesses of India where these alpha predators can hunt undisturbed, and where visitors can watch them going about the business of pursuing their prey.
Drawing much-needed attention to the dwindling tiger population is a matter close to the author`s heats. In order to track down the predatory cats, photographer Thorsten Milse had to exercise agonizing patience over the course of his many travels. After all, nearly important event in a tiger`s life takes place in secret. The tiger`s talent for becoming invisible, motionlessly lying in wait for the right moment to pounce, is a practiced strategy. Nonetheless, the photographer managed to take beguilingly beautiful pictures, shots that are touching, exciting, and that arouse compassion for the animals. Author Uta Henschel provides a fact-filled, intelligent, and nuanced description of the tigers` way of life in the Indian reserve of Bandhavgarh. So we get some deep insights into the secretive life of the most powerful predatory cat in the world.
