Matkasur, the huge male tiger and Maya’s former mate was seen walking on the road in the Khutwanda part of the forest.

  1. Tara (T7)
The T7 tigress was spotted walking in an open area, again in the Kolara zone, which is one of the best gates to go on a safari in Tadoba, since the core zone lies just 500 meters away.
