Tigers are secretive by nature.

They will only show themselves
if they want to be seen.

The tiger is like a ghost in the forest.

You'd be seeing it for a minute,

and the next moment,
it would camouflage so beautifully.

And because of its stripes
and the way it moves,

it can disappear so quickly.

Filming tigers,
first of all, you need to find them.

There are many days
you just don't see tigers.

And you need to be waiting
for that perfect moment,

be there with your camera
running at the right angle.

I really think tigers are
the hardest species in the world to film.

There's one cub there
and the mother's below.

We're just watching a tigress
with her cubs right there.

She's allowed us so close,
which is very, very unusual for a tigress

because they're generally secretive
and very careful when they have cubs

as young as they are,
they're about six to eight months.

The cubs are playing and she's absolutely
unbothered by our presence.

It's a very exciting moment.

Isn't it just nice to be sitting here

when they're sleeping
right in front of us?

But imagine the amount of work
that she's doing, right?

She has to hunt,
she has to feed all these cubs.

She's really a super mom.

Seeing a mother with cubs
is so, so rare in the wild and up close.

It's just, yeah, it's... it's a privilege.

As a cameraperson filming tigers

and following
a particular cub for so long,

it's... it's very hard
to not get attached to an individual.

You see the cub when it's two months old,

and then you see it grow
to almost a year and a half,

and then one fine day,
you know that cub is going to leave.

I really feel emotional.

I just hope that he makes it
wherever he goes.

This is a place
where there's a lot of conflict.

A lot of cattle are being killed,

and these cattle are actually
lifeline for these villagers

because it's their livelihood.

Careful.

Be careful.

Keep it bright with red.

Draw a black dot inside the eye

to make it look like a cow's round eye.

Like this?

We all have different ideas.

There's a village
where one of the tigers was very active

and people have lost most of the cattle
to that particular individual.

As soon as we painted the cattle
with eyes, this tiger immediately shifted.

Probably, tiger realized that
there's cattle now

who can see on both sides,

who can see from the front
and who can see from the back.

And the next time
when we went to that village,

every person came with cattle
for painting.

They said, "Oh, please paint our cattle.
It's good. It's helping us."

We have roads.

We have a lot of traffic

which actually make it impossible

for these animals
to go from one place to other place.

When I stand there
and look on those massive structures

which our country has built for the tigers

to walk from one side of the forest
to the other side,

it really feels emotional.

- Amazing, yeah?
- Yeah.

So imagine that vehicles going on top

and there are tigers
which are moving beneath these vehicles,

and neither the lorry drivers
nor the tigers know

they are at the same place
at the same time.

So that's what the dream was
and it's, it's, it's amazing.

So I think she walked on this path.

Exactly same trail.

- Amazing vantage point for her.
- Absolutely,

and this is the best place
to set up the camera trap.

This tigress is pretty much
a resident of the city,

but she's an invisible resident.

She's crossing fences,

she's walking on roads,
she's in farmlands,

but she's never seen by anyone.

And that just shows
an incredible adaptation.

She's perfected that skill
of avoiding people

and it's amazing that in all the years
that she's been here,

she hasn't hurt anyone
and she's just going about her life.

Bhopal has a special place for tiger.

No other city you could see
tiger moving so close to people.

This is really fascinating to me.

I think the people of Bhopal
are really proud of having tigers here.

And it's so unusual
because it's a predator

and everywhere else, people fear them,

but here, they're so proud
of having her in their backyard.

We are getting the location of the tiger.

Yes, please go ahead,
put camera traps there.

Ah, I love the tigress very, very much.

She is very delicate,
nice, beautiful I should say.

People of Bhopal feel very proud
and very happy also

to have tigers in the vicinity.

For a lot of people in India,

tiger, which is also called as Waghoba,
is Dev, which means he's God.

A lot of people worship it,
especially in the rural areas,

for its strength and power
and the fact that it rules the forest.

I think India stands out
amongst most nations in the world

for the kind of tolerance

that the people of the country show
towards wildlife, especially tigers.

Tigers don't look at humans as prey.

In fact, they are quite afraid of people,
of anything standing on two feet,

they're afraid of them.

When a human being crouches down,

from a tiger's point of view,
that looks like a prey species.

Almost all human deaths
because of tigers are accidental deaths.

Increasing tiger numbers is
good news, you know.

It's a conservation success story
for the world.

But a lot of people pay a price
for this rise in tiger numbers.

What is at stake is the years of tolerance

that people have shown
towards these tigers.

Everyone please huddle.

When we get a call from the village,

we go there to see what's happened.

We feel terrible to find that
a woman has been killed by a tiger.

There are wild animals
moving through the farms.

So nobody should stay late
on the farms or go into the forest.

This is not a one-off incident.
There are many like this.

If there's an incident anywhere,

we have to get ready
and go there straight away.

We have to be alert 24 hours a day.

Pay attention at the back.

Let's go.

There's limited space

and there will be more problems
in years to come.

We have to help people understand

that tigers don't usually kill humans.

These are accidents.

We will try to make sure
that this doesn't happen in the future.

Tell me how's your health?

Everything is well.

Come home. Mother has made sabzi.

When are you coming to the village?

Yes. I'll come.

I love my job at the forest,

I like that I am in touch with the jungle,
the animals and the people.

So for now,
I want to continue living alone.

I want to tell women
to fulfill their dreams.

If they want to become
a forest guard or anything else,

they must go for it.

We have to do hand-rearing.

Right now we are behaving like her mother.

We have to think like a tiger.

This is the big lesson that I learned
from the rescue of tigers.

I must know
what will be the next step of the tiger.

Tiger is always clever, man,

that's why he's the king of jungle.

So we must think
to overcome their cleverness.

Now we are just waiting
and watching all around us.

Yesterday's night is too hard for us

and tiger animal is not come.

So let us see.

Again we try.

Try again, try again, we'll get success.

Ajay, can you see the tiger there?

Can we take the shot?

I can see the tiger
but it's in a head-on position.

The shot is risky.

Let's not take the shot
unless we get the right position.

Oh, my God.

We've revived it
and now he's very comfortable, relaxed.

It's a very good tiger,
it's around two and a half years old,

it's a sub-adult and male
and a massive male also.

You see the villagers, they are very happy

because they think that
they have solved the problem.

I just feel very sorry
when I, uh, put the tiger in the cage.

When I saw the tiger in the field,
I darted him, and I send it to the zoo.

At that time, our team will get very sad

that we just end the freedom
of that particular fellow.

It's a win-win situation.

If we are successful in getting
at least five, six females

from this particular landscape
to the other area,

so it's good for everybody,

for conservation,
for tigers and for people.

This is the pugmark of a female.

They are so shy.

Even if they are just resting
ten meters away from you,

it's very difficult to spot them.

So that makes it very difficult for us
to track her and to capture her.

Look to your right.

I'm zoomed in fully, I can see the wound.

He's licking the wound right now.

Ah, he's limping, oh God.

I think he's quite badly injured.

He's limping at the moment
and he has this really bad injuries

so I'm really worried for him
because there are lots of tigers here

and he's just going to have to fight
or leave to be able to survive.

He's licking his wounds

but if they don't heal,
he's in real big danger

because he has only two options.

One is he just won't be able to hunt
and he'll die of starvation.

The only other option is that he starts
picking easy prey, which is cattle.

And that's the start
of human-wildlife conflict.

And usually, that doesn't end well
for the tigers.

She's around five to six months old.

But when we observed in the field,
she is emaciated, dehydrated and so weak.

So that's why we rescued from the field

and we are monitoring,
we are locating the female

so that the cub will be reunited
with the female

and she will remain in the wild.

That will be the happy ending
for the female cub.

P2, how are you?

Don't worry.

You will get the big enclosure,

get the new females also.

Then you will enjoy life.

So don't worry.

It's a very black day for us.

Because we lost a full-grown
adult tigress due to such...

unbelievable thing that is electrocution.

That should not happen.

One female can produce four cubs in a year

so you can imagine
the loss of the wild tigers.

Stand at ease.

Attention.

Have you ever seen a tiger?

Yes.

What will you do when you spot a tiger?

Will you run?

If you run,
he'll think that you're his prey.

Just make noise and stay where you are.

Can you see the tiger?

No.

Did you see it? Where is it?

Did you spot him?

Yes.

- What do you see?
- Tiger.

Did it run away?

When we explain this
to the children in the school,

they will explain it to their parents.

So this message can spread,

and human-wildlife conflict
can be reduced.

When these plants grow into trees,

wild animals can rest under their shade.

Students, do you want
to become a forest guard like Shital?

Yes.

Yes.

Do you feel good planting the tree?

Yes.

When you pass by this tree,
you'll remember planting it.

Okay, five or six people come fast.

We can't waste time.

She's young, you have seen her teeth.

They are shining white
with a very small groove on that,

which indicates that she is
around two years of age.

So she is actually of that particular age

where she's going to go out,
look for a territory

and look for a partner
and then raise her cubs of her own.

Basically, this is the final day,
this is we can say the marriage day.

See this, all people are very happy

because we are going to introduce
the female in the area of the males.

In the next ten minutes,
she's going to be out there in the wild.

Finally, we did it.

As she just came out from the cage,
she is so happy in my sense,

because she is going to the wild.

This is heaven for her.

She may have the cute,
cute tigress cubs so she will enjoy.

This is a place of hope for her

where she has a higher chance of breeding,

having a territory of her own,
having a litter of her own,

having a home of her own.

It's really a great feeling
but the real job begins from tomorrow,

when she will start exploring a territory
where she has never been.

It's now four months,
and this female is doing perfectly fine.

She has established her territory.

She has been seen
many times with the male.

So we hope that
she has also mated a couple of times.

And we hope that, in coming days,
she's going to litter,

she's going to produce young ones
in this new territory.

So this was a dream and it has come true.

And we can continue to follow
these tigers in Nagzira

and see how this population is going
to do in the next five, ten years.

It's a very good morning

because I'm just very happy
to see P2 tiger.

Having the 60 acres enclosure,
it's a very good space for any tiger.

Everyone can visit him,

and everyone can know him.

If you see the tiger for a while,
you will never forget it,

because it's so beautiful, so majestic.

A lot of people who are here
have misconceptions about tigers.

They think all tigers are man-eaters
and that they are there to harm them.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hi, my name is Pooja.

And I'm going to show you
a short film about tigers.

This film will give you
a message from the tiger.

So do you want to watch this story?

Yes!

- Okay.
- Okay, let's start.

Days pass by and we grow up

bigger and stronger.

If you must come into the forest,
walk in groups and make noise

so I know you're there
and I can avoid you.

I'm really overwhelmed.

Just looking at the crowd, looking at
how just hooked to the screen they were.

The people who came here to watch the film
have real-life problems.

They have interactions with tigers
on a daily basis.

If this film even saves one life,
I think we've done our job.

Thank you for coming.

We'll meet soon. Thank you.

Co-existence will only be possible
if this is economically beneficial

to the local people,

who share their landscape
with these large predators.

There are four female tigresses
in our zone.

And all of them have cubs.

And their father is called
Chota Matka, the male tiger.

Kingfisher bird!

We are getting good income and
all the families of the village are happy.

We never cause any damage to the forest

and in the future, we will preserve
the forest because it's our livelihood.

Imagine when this was not
a nature conservancy.

So the farmers were trying to protect
this land from crop-raiding deers.

So they were considered as pests.

Today, the same farmer
wants to see deer in his land

because that's giving more money.

So this is how the landscape
has converted a pest into a resource.

As the tiger population increases,
so does the number of tourists.

Which is good for us.

Now we're getting paid well.

This is the first example
of rewilding farmland

close to a protected area in India.

So if this is successful,

there can be hundreds and hundreds
of nature conservancies in India.

- Hey. Let's see what we've got.
- Yeah.

- Oh, my God.
- Oh, there's the mother.

Followed by the cubs.

The first cub coming out.

- Oh, my God, the one after the other.
- Yeah.

All of them are peeping
their heads into the fence.

She just, like, squeezed in,
she's too big for it.

Yeah, so cute actually.

It's teaching them
how to come out from the fence.

Isn't it so lovely, right?

And they're so quick learners.

They look pretty healthy.

Yeah, absolutely healthy.

Such a beautiful shot we got.

She's raising these four cubs

and she's actually
showing them her territory,

she's showing them where they can hunt,

where they can find water.

It's showing these cubs
how to move in the landscape,

how to stay secretive
and not get exposed to the people,

showing how to survive inside the city.

Such a great mother it is, actually.

I feel like that is
what India is going to need in future,

like, tigers that show adaptations
to living around people.

And she's just showing us
how tigers can do that.

She's the hope for the future.

It's a challenge.

And they're doing it beautifully.

They're doing it in a most amazing manner

to live with humans.

I think there is always a space
in the heart of the people

to live with tigers,

to share the landscape
with these magnificent carnivores.
