A male tiger patrols his territory in the fabled forests of Kanha as the monsoon clouds gather in the backdrop to light up the sky in various shades of lavender. The camera-trap image was photographed with the help of Dr Sanjay Shukla (IFS), who was the Field Director of the Kanha Tiger Reserve at the time. A mud dam wall which holds water throughout the year proved to be the prime trap site to capture the big cat in its element at night.
