But there are tigers as well, snakes and a great bull bison that survived a titanic battle with a tiger. These are no mere hunger's stories: thrills are there, but difficulties too, failures and disappointments. But the author, was has spent a lifetime in trying to understand the minds of jungle creatures, takes us into his confidence and explains the methods by which he has been able to rid the remoter inhabitants of India of some of their most terrible enemies.".
