Thanks for taking the time to look.

Douglas, The bears have a reputation of being quite aggressive if you run
into them in the wild. The Indian Sloth Bear has a fearsome reputation in
this regards, mainly because they have a highly developed sense of smell,
and very poor eyesight, so they tend to attack first and think, if at all,
later. Even tigers do their best to avoid them.

Alan, the fact that you are always at ground level, in a vehicle, boat or
(mainly) on your feet, looking up and photographing antics on the canopy,a
hundred feet above you, lends itself very naturally to silhouettes! :-)

Cheers
Jayanand
