In memory of my beloved Dad - Rajesh Virdi
I was leading a full day safari tour at Ranthambore as we scoured the beautiful hill and rocky terrain of the tiger centric Ranthambore forest. Getting the usual sighting of tigers sitting in the water or crossing the road or even walking like this beauty but this was a special moment. Let me elaborate, as soon as the morning normal safari vehicles left the reserve, we kept exploring the terrain with our full day permits. We started to head towards the gate of Zone 3 to freshen up a bit, but this big cat had a different idea. As we almost approached the gate (few meters), She emerged from the forest and started to walk on the safari track as we kept reversing. We were the only ones there and spent the entire afternoon till the evening safari vehicle came in. She walked, marked her territory, stalked and also charged and took down a little deer fawn on the banks of the famous fort's lake.
