> Some photographs of a tigress called T39 or Noor. She has a very

> tried tracking him down on a few other drives into this area but came
> up short - his pug marks were all over the place, but no cub. Anyway,
> here are just a few studies of T39, the mother. We were the first
> vehicle to find her, so we had the prime position about 10-15 feet
> away initially, and had also turned the vehicle to face the direction
> in which she was likely to move, so we were again pretty well
> positioned when she did move, by which time there were a dozen
> vehicles, at least, around. A total feather in the cap for the guide,
> Ashlesh and the driver, Mohan, and it just underlines the importance
