Panar Man-Eater (Re-recorded) byJim Corbett | Audiobook (English)

[@selvalore]

The previous recording of this story was much loved but suffered from substandard and choppy audio. It had been bothering me for a while so finally, I was able to find time to re-record it with additional sounds embedded within the narration for a better listening experience. Thanks for all the interest in these stories from a bygone era.

[@str8metaljacket535]

I know it’s a lot to ask but Talla Des would benefit greatly from a recording like this, only bring it up because it’s mentioned by you in the comments

[@AmitJodh]

Great Efforts, How about "Maurauder of Kempekarai"? Love to hear your audiobook before sleeping 💤.

[@selvalore]

@@str8metaljacket535 I have been meaning to get around to that too. It is one of my favorite stories but its long. I hope to find time to do it soon. Thank you.

[@selvalore]

@@AmitJodh Thank you and great to see your comment again after all these months. That is a fantastic story and I plan to get to it sometime.

[@raymondsandoval6656]

Very well done. Your voice is pleasing to listen to and follow. Thanks!

[@matthewhamilton6386]

I run a podcast called "Force of Nature" and on my show we have covered several of Jim Corbett's stories. I recently found this channel and am grateful for them. Currently working on an episode on the Panar man-eater. And being able to listen to it has helped a lot for research. Much respect. I plan on giving the channel a shoutout on my show too. Maybe send some listers your way.

[@selvalore]

I appreciate that! Thanks Mathew If memory serves I think I have listened to an episode or two on spotify. Good work and keep going!

[@taylorbowling640]

I've listened to yalls show force of nature I love the corbett episodes and stories from both of you good job guys!

[@lgalardi]

[@selvalore]

Thank you. All credit to the men who penned these down. Cheers!

With no complete education in british royal family nehru Indira and stupid gandhi Killing is a cheap display of power Netaji maharana pratap veer shivaji maharaj would never have allowed rascal Britishers to kill such innocent magnificent animals They can be tranquilized and kept in zoo

[@roderickschroeder2782]

Its one of his most memorable stories I have read it many times over.

[@selvalore]

Indeed it is. Thanks for listening!

[@clintoncampbell236]

Thanks for re recording this , love these old stories of man eaters and the men who hunt them. I hope that in our ignorance we don’t wipe out the last wild tigers left. For the jungle would loose what makes it wild .

[@selvalore]

Beautifully expressed! Thank you for commenting, Mr. Campbell.

[@sangramsingh8000]

I like the inclusion of the Sheppard illustrations in the start. He had a huge hand to play in the success of Corbett’s books. Thank you 🙏

[@selvalore]

Agreed. His illustrations were a big selling point.

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

So true about the illustrations!

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

I am slowly working my way through the whole collection of stories you have kindly recorded. This one I enjoyed especially thanks to the inclusion of the sound effects. I see from your description that you have recorded this story before, so thank you for all your effort in bringing these amazing stories back to life on a medium that Corbett could never have imagined. I am sure he would thoroughly approve of your efforts :)

[@selvalore]

That's an excellent way of looking at it. Thank you for commenting!

[@jeffreywilson3106]

Much thanks for taking out the time for this. Looking forward to listening it 💯

[@selvalore]

Thank you Mr. Wilson!

[@kvonkirk2340]

Mr Corbett was a very humble man. Also protected by God almighty and the Gods of India. He may have called it luck but to survive all he did was more then that.

[@motorcop505]

Another magnificent reading! Thanks so much. Another book you may enjoy is “Hunter,”. by J. A. Hunter. He was one of the great African hunters and believed that Leopards were the most dangerous animal to hunt because it would hunt the Hunter if given the chance. Thanks again! 🐆

[@selvalore]

Thanks for the comment. I'd be sure to check out the title that you recommend.

[@ojas3464]

👍Thanks for your audio. The Panar Man-Eater is part of the omnibus. Your reading with intonation gives a realistic impression☺

[@jimmyh8090]

Thank you . This new recording shows just how far you and your excellent channel has come since you started. Iv been following you since your first story . Thanks again Jim

[@selvalore]

I very much remember and appreciate it every time I see your name in the comments section. Much thanks!

[@salimtahir9654]

This is my favorite Corbett story.

[@Versatilad]

We have been missing you for quite some time...

[@buglover-qb1dq]

Feels like the stories in Outdoor Life magazine. Really enjoying this Re-recording!

[@selvalore]

That's great to hear. Thanks for the comment.

[@clintoncampbell236]

If you get a chance I’d love to hear you read the temple tiger story . Thanks for getting these stories where hopefully another generation can appreciate them .

[@selvalore]

Absolutely, I plan on reading it sometime in the future. Thanks again for commenting!

[@101mossie]

Great content , well done sir. 👍

[@jamesstuckey2732]

Thanks for keepin it real man

[@selvalore]

Thank you for listening!

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

Excellent sound effects, especially the jackal,of which I'm very familiar!

[@chinchin6115]

I can't imagine the abject terror suffered by the villages in the maneaters territory

[@oliverwalker2674]

Even better 2nd time round, laughing at him laughing at the cook chasing his mutton, hilarious, then slapped backed down to reality by strangled screams from a woman with a destroyed neck, I felt bad for laughing earlier, I really liked the extra sounds and illustrations, thank you for re- doing the video and reading though to be honest I didn't actually realise there were any issues with the other video, I was too ingrosed to notice.

[@selvalore]

Always good to see your comment. Thank you for all your interest in these timeless tales.

[@Travelleramit]

Keep up the splendid work , cheers 🍻

[@selvalore]

Thanks Amit

[@noopurmathur431]

It is impossible to take a break, when I start listening to your narrations... Have literally gobbled up all the episodes, in one breath!!!! Also, tried reading the books along with the audio playing in the ears... !!!! Awesome... Keep up the good work

[@selvalore]

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment again, Ms. Mathur. Love hearing that these readings are providing some value to you and to others out there. Best regards!

EXCELLENT PRESENTATION. GREAT WORK SON. AUDIO VISUALS SUPERB. GOD BLESS YOU. MORE SUCH PRESENTATIONS IS WELCOME. THANKS FOR THIS TREAT.

[@selvalore]

Thank you as always sir!

[@gatorduran3288]

Jim Corbett said 1910 was a great year for him!

[@millag93]

Thank you 💝

[@gatorduran3288]

Yeah, the Masai have a great reputation!

[@zootedandstoopid]

Thank you thank you

[@selvalore]

Welcome!

[@mdove9093]

Lovely. High effort work. Carpet sahib would approve.

[@selvalore]

Haha, that would be the high water mark of my life. Thanks for watching!

[@richardluck]

It was very very kind of Mr Corbett to say he would have run with the rest after he gave his word he wouldn’t as I know he would not have what a very modest man

[@bernardgreer7834]

Thank you.

[@selvalore]

You're welcome!

[@JohnDavidHays]

Thank you

[@selvalore]

You're very welcome!

[@wilberrojas5205]

Escuchado excelente

[@DasnarkyRemarky]

I don’t know if people know this but there’s an actual surviving photograph of the Panar leopard. Which is very surprising because I don’t know how Corbett was able to photograph the animal in 1910 when cameras must have been very very rare and this leopard was shot in an extremely remote location.

[@jimmyh8090]

The photo would of been one of Jim Corbett own pictures, photography and making films of wildlife was a hobby of his . His pictures are in some of his books and i think I read somewhere that he was the first person to film a tiger in the wild

[@DasnarkyRemarky]

@@jimmyh8090 you are right. He was one of the first. FW champion, a close associate of Corbett, would have been the first. No doubt it would have been Corbetts personal picture but cameras were quite big and heavy back then so still surprising that Corbett chose to have his men carry a camera to that remote area when he wasn't even sure if he would find the leopard or not.

[@lindaarrington9397]

[@sensupradip]

Great story.

[@dr.vivekanandats7331]

This is the very peculiar story in the Corbett`s collection. Instead of this story I`m translated the Whole stories of Corbett in to Kannada. These stories are very popular in Kannada in name of HIMALAYADA NARABHAKSHAKAGALU ( the Man eaters of the Himalaya). This book is in TOP 10 for several years. Particularly Man eating leopard of Rudraprayag story was translated by K P Poornachandra Tejaswi.

[@selvalore]

I'm not suprised at all about the popularity of Mr. Corbett's stories in Kannada. Thank you for commenting and carry on the good work!

[@gatorduran3288]

OMG this leopard was reputed to have killed 400 and another one killed 426! WOW!

[@oneoflokis]

That was a great story! 🙂👍 (As are all the others on this channel.) And I love the way you read it - with that articulate, Indian-with-a-touch-of-Irish accent! 🙂 You are a super narrator. 👍

[@selvalore]

Thanks! The Irish part has been mentioned a few times before as well, much to my surprise.

[@abuhanzalaalamin1207]

Waiting for your new recording very badly

[@selvalore]

Check back later today

[@vijaykumars5041]

Selva your narration is top-notch. Also just a suggestion you can narrate some chapters from "Thirteen years among the wild beasts of India" by George P Sanderson.

[@selvalore]

Thank you for the suggestion Vijay. I recently found out about that book. I do plan to record some essays and take a step back from all these man-eater stories and then maybe I will include some of Sanderson's writings. Best!

[@aditya4120]

Good job

[@kvonkirk2340]

So i was watching an indie KZbinr who's whole channel is history and visiting jim Corbett sites well about half way though one of his videos he met with the great grandson of the woman who mr Corbett gave the medicine to. Saying he wouldn't be alive today if not for mr Corbett. I wish i could find that video again.

[@selvalore]

Are you maybe referring to a channel by the name of UK Rover?

[@gatorduran3288]

It’s uncanny how lucky both Kenneth Anderson and Jim Corbett were in their kills!

[@gatorduran3288]

At this same time, Corbett also killed another tiger!

[@monalisad1220]

Please make a vlog on the THAK MAN EATER BY JIM CORBETT....

[@IMBrute-ir7gz]

Are there any maneating tigers or leopards operating in India nowadays? If so, how are they being dealt with?

[@An-lv9vw]

Some times they appear - in north east and south there are man eating tigers n leopards .. lions replace tigers in western india. Govt tries to tranquilize or trap them but in some cases warrants are issued to put them down.

[@pannudilraj]

Sir Pls Read From "INDIA ADVENTURE STORIES" by PATRICK GRIFFITH. GREAT COLLECTIONS OF JUNGLE, MANEATER, ADVENTURE, PARANORMAL INDIAN STORIES. 3 VOLUME AMAZON. 🙏📚🙏👍

[@gatorduran3288]

Badwa was very courageous!

[@benjaminisrael6970]

From ramnagar India

[@gatorduran3288]

The leopard kept trying to break down the door to the couple’s house!

[@buffalorick5598]

It seems that even though the Panar Leopard 🐆 killed more humans, the Rudraprayag Leopard had to be more careful and cunning to survive the likes of Corbett and traps and such? Thus more publicity he received? Both were just as formidable as the Tsavo Lions. Two man eating Lions 🦁 that moved freely in an 8 mile camp with 4000 terrified workers, mostly from India. I do admire Corbett as I also respect those 4 big cats that reigned hell and terror down on mankind, who have no one but themselves to blame for them becoming man eaters!

[@gatorduran3288]

That woman was lucky that her husband pulled her away from the leopard! But the wife was now unconscious!

[@rafayacademy8479]

The number of viewers will be greatly enhanced if videos are dubbed in Hindi/Urdue.

[@gatorduran3288]

It’s a shame that these villagers didn’t have any rifles or guns!

[@gatorduran3288]

The poor wife finally died from her wounds!

[@mauriceclark4870]

Does Jim get leave. Of absence. From. Railway duties. ?? Or has he. Retired. From work. ?? Whilst hunting. Man eaters

[@petermurage8685]

The Masai tribe in Kenya would have no problem taking down such an animal. Even lions in the Amboseli fear those guys. They steal lion kill and hunt down prides which bother their livestock

[@asentertainments3977]

Leopard is different thing bro and man eating leopard is 10 times more deadly than lion and hunting in grasslands is easy than hunting in dense forest

[@gatorduran3288]

Jim Corbett used a shotgun this time!

[@Sandbarfight]

Thank you
