Wildlife Series: Part 3 – The astounding story of a tigress who was adopted by an forest officer
Leave a reviewTigers are either feared or hunted or both. Sometimes when they turn into man-eaters, they turn into the stuff of legends (and eventually give birth to stories such as the Man-eaters of Kumaon by Jim Corbett). This episode explores a different side of a tiger. The tiger can also be a creature that is careful, caring and considerate. There are instances of tigers being excellent friends of humans and being allowed to roam around freely in their presence.

Saroj Raj Chaudhury was a forest officer in India and his favourite pet was a tigress named Khairi. We explore the caring side of a tigress in this episode through the story of Khairi, along with Smyan Shetty – a fourth grader from Mumbai. In the previous episode, where we heard about the efforts of conservationists such as Kailash Sankhala, Salim Ali and M.K.Ranjitsinh, in this episode you get to hear about one more conservationist. Saroj Raj Chaudhury played an equally great role in keeping India's forests and its tigers safe and secure.
