According to the 2010 National Census on Tigers, there are about 43 tigers in the reserve, which is one of the highest in India.

Amal used a Nikon z8 camera with Nikon z 400 mm f2.8 lens to capture these magnificent images.

“It was a great experience watching these young tigers,” said Amal.

 

“They were having a playful fight.

 

“It was just a great moment in the wilderness that I was able to capture from a safe distance.”
