Nothing is more majestic than a wild tiger. In this story, we worked to show that the only way to truly save tigers was not with zoos but in the wild, protecting their habitat and their prey. The only way to make a wild tiger is for a tigress to teach her cubs all that she knows. I focused on one female, Sita, about to raise her sixth litter, who wasn’t afraid of the elephants we rode on.
