The tiger is not the only attraction at
Ranthambhor; although it is the one park
resident people come to see. We were lucky to
see several varieties of birds including these
owlets peering through their burrow pictured
here on the right and of course the ubiquitous
langur monkey. Other animals in the reserve
include leopard, caracal, hyena, jackal, jungle
cat, marsh crocodiles, wild boar, bears and
various species of deer.
The main food source for the tiger is the swamp
deer like Barasinsga and on occasion the wild
buffalo and also wild boar etc. If you wish to
stay near the park, the facilities on offer are
superb. The park gates open a half hour before
sunrise and close half hour after sunset. The
timings are vigorously imposed and no exceptions
are made to this rule.
