A Tiger's Tale

Chapter 3

It had been weeks since me and Syeed had checked up on Shikharna that is why we're going to visit her today.

When we had arrived to the place where we'd last seen Shikharna we couldn't tell which Tiger she was but we watched the videos and viewed the pictures I took of her and soon had found out which one she was. She was the one with the most beautiful pattern and bright eyes. As we calmy approached Shikharna we noticed she had given birth! She had two adorable cubs, they were as stunning as Shikharna. Shikharna was a bit weary of us at first because she didn't recognise Syeed and I but soon remembered us and allowed us to watch her cubs.

As we filmed the two cubs I found out they were both male, I could just imagine them when they're grown up and living life on their own. Two big, strong Tigers ruling India. The cubs were very playful, they were always up to mischief especially the one with the strange ear. Through the weeks I have videoed the cubs as well as their mother I managed to think of names for them. The one with the two perfect ears and deep eyes I named "Kharn" and the one with the weird ear I named Broken Ear.

Broken Ear had to be my favourite Tiger ever! Besides Shikharna and Kharn, Broken Ear was always mischievous and playful, he was certainly entertaining. I've watched this family for months and I haven't even got bored of them yet! They are truly the best family of Tigers in the world and do you know what I love about this Tiger family the most Is that they always look out for eachother, Kharn and Broken Ear are extremely lucky that they have an amazing parent like Shikharna.

I've played through all my videos and throughout all of them you can see how Kharn and Broken Ear have grown and became stronger and how more gentle and caring Shikharna had become. I was so lucky that I met Shikharna or this would've never happened that my dreams have came true. Shikharna and her family know Syeed and I so well that we've never bothered them and never will. If only poachers could see how gentle Tigers are and that killing Tigers isn't right and never will be.

In a couple of hours the family had gone on the move again to find a cozy, comfy cave for them to sleep during the night. Syeed and I shared the same cave as them but still kept our distance for the last thing Syeed and I would want is to get on the wrong side of Shikharna because sometimes Shikharna can be very, very aggressive.
