About the Book
Nandu and Salu, young wildlife enthusiasts, are on an exciting adventure in a South Indian forest, helping with a wildlife research project. While setting camera traps and walking line transects, their goal is to catch a glimpse of the magnificent tiger in its natural habitat.

However, despite their best efforts, all they've come across so far are animal droppings! While they've spotted elephants, deer, birds, and squirrels, they haven't yet encountered the adrenaline rush they seek.

Then, just as they are about to head back to camp one evening, they come face to face with a regal, fully grown tigress. What happens when Nandu and Salu have their first encounter with this majestic creature?
