About Tiger Memories
Shocked by wildlife slaughter and drawn to tigers, he made their scientific study his life’s mission. After two decades of effort and mentoring by American biologists, Karanth became a professional wildlife biologist. He pioneered radiotelemetry and camera-trap surveys for big cats, line transects for herbivores and advanced statistical models to track populations—while collaborating with communities and government agencies on habitat protection. Packed with adventures and facts, Tiger Memories belongs in every naturalist’s library. India Viking hardback: ISBN 9789377303266, 336 pages, July 2026. Penguin Random House India.
