  • Male tiger in Kanha National Park, India on 16th April 2014 .
    Since identified as "Munna" one of the biggest male tigers in the park.
    Scent marking up a track to the end of it's territory, where it pauses, and pauses, and pauses and then walks back down the track - to create panic amongst the jeep drivers.

    One of the biggest tigers in India has just given you a great sighting. Munna is a legend, there's not yet a tiger bigger than him when he was in his prime. Even now at 10 yrs old, he still looks great. Recently he has just defeated another younger large male tiger in a fight. This is the massive male that Munna defeated and chased away:

      In india, there was a tiger named Wagdoh.
      Wagdoh was the Crowned king of Todoba forest reserve. He was one of largest tiger in the asia weighing over 300kgs. His territory was about 150sq. kms. He mated with many females nd gave birth to around 20 cubs. But his beloved tigress was Madhuri. Madhuri lost her territory to another female nd left Wagdoh's territory forever. At the eame time there was another tiger named Bajrang who had entered Wagdoh's territory. Wagdoh was madly in love with Madhuri so he left his territory in search of Madhuri. He was only defeated by one tiger named Khali as Wagdoh was pretty old nd weak at that time. After the defeat, khali took Wagdoh's beloved Girlfriend Madhuri nd had kids with her. Wagdoh eventually died in 2022.
      What happened to his territory? Well it was taken by the upcoming king of todoba, Bajrang. Bajrang was not as big as Wagdoh but was still huge and powerful. He successfully defended his territory and defeated many tigers. He had more than 30 kids nd was nd ruled for years after wagdoh left. Later on, he faced the son of matkasur(another male tiger in tadoba), i.e. Chota Matka. At that time, Bajrang was pretty old as well. He was defeated by chota Matka and died in November 2023 due to extensive bleeding and wounds caused during the fight with Chota Matka.
      Now Bajrang's territory is divided among 6 male tigers. After Wagdoh, bajrang expanded hir territory even more and made it the largest territory of a single male tiger in India.

      It was quite odd how the tiger just froze, the guide thought it had reached to limit of it's territory and was having a hard think about trespassing. How I was that steady still surprises me. Hand held travel camera, no tripod. I think being unable to breath helped!

      Bears pound per pond are better in fight than the big cats, way more stamina and much better protected vital areas.Siberians do hunt subadult mostly black and very rarely brown bears, but the fully grown specimens from both species are generally avoided with the adult browns virtually safe from tigers.

      Though I can't tell about which range's video is this but as per my knowledge Munna or T-17 popularly known as The king of Kanha mostly used to rule over the Kisli (pronounced as "Kiss-Lee" ) range of the Kanha-Kisli national park.
      A couple of years or so back he was shifted to van vihar national park as he had killed a local girl. He took his last breath last year in the month of march. But will stay forever in the hearts of wildlife lovers..❤️
