The authors have studied tigers in Ranthambore National Park in India for many years. Only recently have they been able to observe and photograph tigresses with small cubs and adult tigers forming part of a family group. Their findings and photographs are unique and an extraordinary insight into tiger behaviour. They are also a beautiful portrait of a strikingly beautiful animal. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.
