Top 5 Worst Man Eaters In History

[@cobywiththemoby4265]

The champwat tigress shocked me the most because it’s the biggest and strongest in the cat family

The last picture shown is of Jim Corbett and the famous tiger known as the The Bachelor of Pawalgarh whom Corbett hunted around 1930. This tiger was known for its size and it was measured to be 10 feet 7 inches over curves.

Good ...i was just about to write the same ...as I am reading " MANEATERS OF KUMAOUN" written by Col Jim Corbette these days .. yes indeed its The Bachelor of Powelgarh whose man eating habits were unknown at that time...but he was injured and can turn to man eating....he was killing the livestock of Villagers

harpalsingh shergill I always wanted to visit the Corbett National Park but did not get the opportunity. I have been to Rudraprayag and thought of the Man-eating leopard that roamed about and killed people and maybe walked on the same path that I was walking along.

The one that scared me the most was the leopard, while the Tigris did kill more people, the leopard’s tactics were very terrifying. When the leopard started killing people, people got scared so they started hiding in their homes. The leopard found this out, so at night it would break into their homes and kill them in their sleep. People found this out, so they started going outside again so the leopard would get them. That didn’t work because the leopard was patient, so when it would break into people’s homes it would wait for them to come back and when they did it would kill them. The leopard did many more things like cover its tracks, make new fake tracks to mislead hunters, and even carry its victim over 300 yards away from where it originally killed them. Jim Corvett, who also killed the Tigris, stated it was the hardest thing he has ever tried to kill

The tigress' terror was such that villages were abandoned...

[@shivaaybasu8417]

Where is the leopard of rudraprayag?? It is the worst one

[@leemurrison4222]

Leopard of Panar was worse.

[@masroorahmad5365]

He is not here because he killed just 125 people as compared to 400 of panar leopard but no doubt rudraparyag leapord is more legendary and was far more clever than the panar leopard

[@tshepomotaung7067]

Gustav too clever

[@terrycarter4459]

I am not as insensitive as I might seem to some. But I feel for the tigers and all species of wild cat, in fact all species of animals that we are killing, a lot of them on the border of extinction. A world without these magnificent creatures our world would be so dull. People need to be protected from man eaters, but quite often the reason for man eating is something we ourselves have created. Leaving them no room to live and exist; hunters who kill them and their prey. and of course the hunter who shoots and injures them but is too cowardly to finish what he started. Just saying :)

[@kipechawolfeortiz8791]

And it's so stupid everybody's brainwashed themselves into thinkin this kind of stuff isn't relevant to their world. absolute ignorance, sad.

[@west1875]

I understand what you're saying, but is one big cat's life worth dozens of human's?

If the greatest relief is the sudden cessation of pain, the second has to be the sudden cessation of fear. -- Jim Corbet on the villager's reaction to him killing one of the man-eaters.

[@tom5051666]

Wrong! The Tsavo man eaters were never referred to as Ghost or Darkness except in the Hollywood film which was very loosely based on the actual events. Suggest you read the original book written by Patterson himself.

[@fenner1986]

Patterson's book can only be taken with a grain of salt to a certain point as well, modern science has determined that his number of men killed was greatly exaggerated

[@Acreativecorner2000]

@@fenner1986 actually while yes the science says they ATE only about 35 people that doesn't account for people they killed but didn't eat. they killed for fun a lot.

[@offensivevikingveteran7097]

Also the results showed only the amount of omnivorous / meat eating animals/people the lions ate..... Most of the Indian workers were vegetarian or didn't eat meat for religious reasons. So they wouldn't of shown up in the test results
