Overview
For a true tiger lover, the experience of watching tigers in Sawai Madhopur’s Ranthambore will be now fashioned with three Es: emotional, entertaining and educational; and the credit all goes to the impressive booklet released by the forest department namely, “Face to Face- the Tigers of Ranthambore”. You will be now guided directly through this booklet at the Ranthambore vicinity that brings detailed information about the Ranthambore’s tigers, their famous territories and description about the floras and faunas in the tiger reserve. This booklet will be your greatest companion during your tiger tours and you will easily identify the tiger you spot and its features by comparing it with the booklet. Minister of tourism, art and culture, Bina Kak, further defines about the book that it contains all the relevant information of the reserve and specifies tiger zones besides bringing details of the strip pattern of both the left and right sides of the tigers by comparing the profile picture of the tiger and its cub and will be affirmed that they are spotting the same tiger which they have found in the book. This will really prevent the tourists from getting misguided by the guides or any other associates.
All the present tigers will be christened with their complete profile description including their age, weight and territories. While the reserve boasts the technical numbers for the respective tigers; now they will be called by their genuine names according to their appearance and features; like we know T-17 as Sundari, T-16 as Machali and T-28 as Star Male and so on. This will bring the tourists an emotional connection for the tigers and will be leveraged with lots of other Ranthambore information like the contact details of NGOs, hospitals, a map of the town and the accessibility guides.
The important part of releasing this book is that this book will be updated every year with the latest whereabouts of the reserve. So, if you are ready for a new kind of Ranthambore thrill, the book titled “Face to face-the Tigers of Ranthambore” will be your best companion this time for a perfect tiger tour in India.
