Tiger: Portrait Of A Predator
by: Thapar, Valmik

In the 1970's the Indian government designated Ranthambhore a Project Tiger Reserve, as part of a campaign to save the tiger. A decade later, Project Tiger had proved astonishingly successful.

Illustrated throughout with over 170 superb color photographs, this book brings alive the magic of the Ranthambhire wilderness, the electrifying excitment of tracking wildlife through the Indian forest, the thrill of tiger courtship, & the unique hunting prowess of a magnificent male tiger called Genghis. 200 pgs.
