EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the raw power and majestic beauty of a Bengal tiger as it seeks respite from the scorching heat in a pond at Alipore Zoological Garden in Kolkata. The intense summer sun casts its golden rays upon the magnificent creature, highlighting every ripple and contour of its sleek fur. This particular tiger has endured numerous hardships throughout its life. Recovered injured from the Sundarbans area bordering Bangladesh, it bears scars that tell tales of survival and resilience. As time has passed, age has taken a toll on this regal beast, causing it to lose some of its teeth. However, under the watchful care of dedicated zoo authorities, measures have been implemented to ensure the well-being and comfort of these incredible animals during hot seasons. From providing specialized summer diets to increasing water sources within their enclosures, every effort is made to keep them cool amidst rising temperatures. The image captures a moment frozen in time - an open-mouthed expression revealing both vulnerability and strength. It serves as a poignant reminder of our responsibility towards protecting these endangered creatures and preserving their natural habitats. Dibyangshu Sarkar's skillful photography allows us to glimpse into the world of this remarkable Bengal tiger; his lens capturing not only an animal but also an emblematic symbol representing India's rich wildlife heritage.
