A Tiger Called Broken Tail (S29E12)

(episode)

Plots(1)

Passionate English conservationist Collin Stafford-Johnson and his Indian local friend - Hindi interpreter Salim started a unique documentary on a tiger family in Ranthambhore National Park, an abandoned royal fort in in Rajastan, putting the focus on exceptionally bright and inquisitive male cub 'Broken Tail'. It took a tragic turn when the tiger youngster went missing for over a year, only to be found killed by a train. The film mainly shows how the probably hopeless plight of tiger - and wider nature preservation in India, with its expanding population and economic space use, essentially caused the drama.
