Bengal Tiger with Kill. We were very fortunate in Ranthambore NP to not just see tigers, but to see tigers with kills, tigers moving kills, and tigers stalking (imagine a 300 kg house cat). This one is resting next to its kill allowing us to drive quite close. It completely ignored us, but the guides said that had we been on foot it would never have allowed us to get that close.

    If I see the hunting skill and damage our tiny 5kg cat can do, imagine the power of a 300 kg cat! Posted 6 years ago
