Year of the Tiger

Happy Lunar New Year! And...here's wishing you a great start to the Year of the Tiger πŸ…...

I took this in Bandhavgarh National Park, India, in 2013 and it was undoubtedly my most exhilarating experience as a wildlife photographer. Since that time, tiger populations have increased in some critical areas, thanks to the tireless work of NGO's and inter-governmental cooperation: https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/tiger

I look forward to returning to India to lead tours with Nat Expo Tours (http://natexpotours.com/) and once again witnessing wild Bengal tigers in their natural habitat.

PS - this was recognized by Nat Geo editors on the Your Shot page, making the top 10 out of nearly 12,000 images, and recently published in American Essence Magazine...
