Samenvatting:

‘Tiger! Tiger!’ takes you to India's Cardamom Hills in the Periyar National Park, one of the most important tiger conservation areas in the whole of Asia, located in eastern Kerala. We set off on foot along the Periyar Tiger Trail with gamekeepers who were previously poachers. En route with trackers and porters from the Adivasi tribe, the author - with tent and cooking pots - roams the lake district and its hinterland for four days in search of poachers and Shir Khan, the ‘king of the jungle’ - and meets many other familiar faces from the famous ‘Jungle Book’. A captivating and touching journey into the true heart of India and into the time of Rudyard Kipling. Illustrated eBook with numerous photos.
