Maximum they stay for three years and after the degree they all wants to cool off in a/c rooms. Other thing on which we wrote a paper in semi scientific journal was what age a male changes its hormones. If you go through the male Tiger situation in that area you may find the answer. Like homo sapiens these female do also like a stable partner. Otherwise they dont conceive.Bandhavgarhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08067134199082110208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683969574376821054.post-90932943240160541902014-03-26T12:16:48.455+05:302014-03-26T12:16:48.455+05:30Thanks for this post, Satyendra.

I'm no expert, as you know, and am only speculating as a reader...could it be that she didn't come into heat earlier because there was no stable male in the zone? Another, more morbid, possibility is that maybe she did have cubs from a male and they were killed by another male before we could get to know of their existence? It'd be interesting to know from the scientists and other experts what the average gap between litters is for tigresses in the wild from empirical studies.
