Evidence of tigers in the lower Himalayan habitats of Dehradun Forest Division, India
2023  Cat News (77): 9-12

We report here photographic evidence of the occurrence of tigers_ Panthera tigris_ from the Dehradun Forest Division, Uttarakhand, India. These tigers were photo captured in the months of September-December 2021. These records suggest that tigers have persisted or recolonised the Himalayan ranges and adjoining lowlands west of the river Ganga, even though Western Rajaji Tiger Reserve has been assumed to be the sole tiger population west of the Ganga River in recent decades.
