A fierce territorial battle between two tigresses at Maharashtra's Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve has captured widespread attention after a video of the dramatic fight resurfaced online. The intense clash, recorded by safari tourists, shows the tigresses, Veera and Bhela, locked in a furious confrontation, their roars echoing through the forest.
In the footage, onlookers watch from a safe distance as another group of tourists cautiously reverses their jeep to avoid getting too close to the tense scene. The fight reportedly took place at a hotspot for wildlife sightings within the reserve. Sources indicate the fight stemmed from a territorial dispute, a common but dramatic occurrence among tigers. The spectacle also sent nearby animals into a frenzy due to the escalating tension.
The video, first shared by the Maharashtra Forest Department on X in February, was recently reposted on Instagram by the official account of Ranthambore National Park.
