 Tale of the wild [1]

Gobind Sagar Bharadwaj was attacked by a tiger just after his induction into the Indian Forest Service. The wounds took two months to heal. But the episode was an eye-opener for the forest officer. "The tiger could have easily killed me but it didn't as man is not on its menu,' he writes in Tracking Tigers in Ranthambhore.

The book advocates monitoring of tigers in Ranthambhore National Park by using photo identification. The analyses in this publication are based on Bharadwaj's sightings
