a male tiger's hunting attempt failed

A male tiger (called Bolu Gudda) at Bandipur Tiger Reserve tried to hunt a herd of Gaurs admist the presence of several safari goers

Prey animals like Gaur dont have color vision - something unique to humans and primates. So they cannot pick out the outline of a tiger like we might. They mostly see in black and white or monchrome. That is why tigers are able to sit quietly close by as long as they don’t move.

This tiger is built like a paper, this physique is meant for agility….

what a video. beautiful

What a massive dude!

[@wesleyd1971]

I'm sure it was much work to make the video. Lots of good footage. Yet perhaps you could pay a little more attention to your sound editing.

BEAUTIFUL

[@tommosley2844]

Among the big cats, tigers are the worst hunters.😮

[@s.jdutta4025]

What makes you say that??

[@tommosley2844]

@@s.jdutta4025 Because it's true. Their success rate is around 5%. Here's a link which provides information on the success rate of different predators. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXWXqmdqgZubo6c

He evolved with a dark mane to stand out and fight, and not with stripes or spots to refuse and hide. Lion king

Blah blah blah shut up

Lions have a whole pride with them to ensure the success in hunting.. A lion should try taking a gaur down, which is larger than any extant bovid in the world.. He may get the success but not as easily as a tiger.. Not denying the fact that lions are more courageous than tigers when it comes to fighting

Leão é o segundo pior lutador entre todos os felinos, não sabe usar as patas, morde fraco, não luta deitado, não luta em pé, lento, tem sorte de ser grande e viver em bando

[@MrJamespta80]

Poor climax

[@cbp117]

Imagine being in the way of all those 600+ kg gaurs running twoards u 😅

[@user-ns1lq9wz2f]

The fact that tigers don’t have a pride on their back like lions to try to hunt down large prey like this is crazy. It just shows how much superior and intelligent they are compared to lions.

[@pavan.kumar.n]

yeah! It's totally a fascinating creature

[@Axel_Crimson]

Well imagine if the tigers live in pride nothing could stop them not even a gaur

[@ironchariot601]

Tiger has a bear like structure. It can fight with brown bears.

[@user-bj5fq1id4y]

I believe lions hunt in prides because African plains do not offer cover like Indian jungles. That is also why Gir lions have much smaller prides.

Interesting 👍🏼
