Trip Report - Wildlife Trip Report - Indian Sub-ContinentTrip Report [Group led by Christina ]Destination Covers : Bandhavgarh – Kanha This was my morning drive into a different zone, and it was exciting from the very beginning. It was barely 5 minutes form our entrance and we had seen some jeeps that were ahead of us had stopped. They were all looking to the left as one female tigress and her two cubs were leaving the scene. She was known as Mahamans daughter. The older Mahaman was from the litter of Chakradhara female.
Trip Report [Group led by Dr. Fritz Jantschke ]Destination Covers : Delhi – Kolkatta – Jorhat - Kaziranga This trip started with meeting the group led by Dr. Fritz Jantschke at Kolkatta airport for Jorhat flight. My flight from Delhi landed late but still had enough time to meet the group and go through with them for security check up. We were met on arrival in Jorhat by Apoorva, our local escort, who also was with the first group for North East prior to this one. A quick introduction and we were off to Kaziranga where we were booked in Wild Grass Wildlife Resort. A brief mention on this lodge – It came up many years ago under the able guidance of Manju Barua (fondly called Dada or Elder Brother). I have been lucky enough to be able to speak with him and also to meet him on many occasions. We reached lodge before the sunset and everyone from the group were quickly taken to their rooms. Re-assembled again in the dining hall for briefing about next day’s program
Trip Report - -Wildlife Trip to IndiaTrip Report by [ Lars-Åke Janzon Swedish Tour Guide ]Destination Covers : Delhi –Pench National Park – Kanha Naional Park - Bandhavgarh National Park - Lucknow - Corbett National Park Wildlife trip to India was extremely successful. It is seldom you see so many kind of animals during one short trip. Imagine, that just after three days all participants had see at least one tiger - several had seen more than one. In total, we saw at least ten different tigers!
Trip Report - Ranthambhore and Corbett National ParkTrip Report -�� I made it to Ranthambore National Park for first time. It was April 16 and we were on our first morning drive. The weather was nice. I love it here. The smells, sounds ,and sights are just amazing to me. We were heading into Zone 8. It was a little out of the way, we drove for about 20 minutes to get to the main entrance. This part had been added to the reserve. It was pretty bumpy but refreshing to me. The color of the dirt always fascinates me. It is rich in iron. As we were heading up one of the hills, another jeep had drove by us and told us there is a tigress on her way down. We got so excited. Wow, my first drive, first day and already being blessed to see a magnificent tiger. A few of us had already gotten situated in an area where we knew she would be walking through. A couple more jeeps came and parked. Then we all waited quietly until we saw the female coming through all the dry shrubs. I got a couple nice pics of her. I used my phone to record her while she walked through the crowd.. I like having live footage of these beauties for my memories. She had snarled a little as we probably crowded her. She crossed from one side of the track to the other side. I think she was hungry and looking for a meal. As she sat down and was pretty concealed for a few minutes, we were totally in awe. How can any human being who spots a wild tiger not be under the spell. Their beauty and strength is unexplainable.
