Rupkatha Journal on Interdisciplinary Studies in Humanities, 9(3), 151–160. https://doi.org/10.21659/rupkatha.v9n3.16.This particular edition also benefits from some delightful line drawings that give a perfect sense of place. Corbett, J. (2015b [1954]). The temple tiger and more man-eaters of Kumaon (39th imp.). Oxford University Press.

Die Geschichten ähneln sich stark. Corbett bindet ein Ochsen oder eine Ziege als Köder an die Stelle, wo als letztes ein Mensch gefressen wurde und klettert auf einen Baum, um dem Tiger aufzulauern. Häufig muss er die Tiger tagelang durch die Wildnis verfolgen. In any case, whether or not one agrees with his values, Corbett is a born story-teller. Despite the fact that he obviously lived to tell the tale, one soon finds oneself so lost in the narrative that one wonders how Corbett can possibly escape the hairy situation he is describing. He has the great gift of being able to convey tension and uncertainty in very few words. Biermann, C., & Anderson, R. M. (2017). Conservation, biopolitics, and the governance of life and death.

This book was a little difficult for me to rate. The prime reason being that I am absolutely in love with tigers. I have seen a lot of documentaries on tigers and have enjoyed it thoroughly. Tiger is a large-hearted gentleman with boundless courage and that when he is exterminated—as exterminated he will be unless public opinion rallies to his support—India will be the poorer, having lost the finest of her fauna.” Chundawat, R.S.; Khan, J.A.; Mallon, D.P.\n (2011).
