He has seen a tiger in every visit so far. As the weather is rainy at present, the chances of seeing a tiger are less. However, sources said that Sachin had a tiger sighting in both the safaris.
In the last week of February, Sachin came to Tadoba. He enjoyed tiger safaris from different gates like Kolara, Madnapur and Alijanja. As many as six safaris were done in three days. In the meantime, he was also visited by famous tigers like Bhanuskhindi tigress and her four cubs, Babli and her three cubs, Chhota Matka tiger.
Satisfied with this experience, Sachin said on his way back, “The experience in Tadoba was thrilling. This forest is a planned one. Thank you to the guards and staff from the area.’ The message indicated that he would be back soon.
