Tiger Shooting In The Doon And Ulwar PDF Download

Excerpt from Tiger-Shooting in the Doon and Ulwar: With Life in India IN my opinion there is no sport which is equal to tiger-shooting. A keen fox-hunter may ask whether it is better than a good run with fox-hounds. I consider that it is so most assuredly. 'i could give numerous reasons for the choice, the chief amongst which I may mention. In tiger-hunting the scene of the chase is in the beautiful and wild Indian jungles, pervaded as they are by a feeling of solitude and romance. The skin of the tiger, a valuable trophy, is the reward of success. Besides, if the sportsman has only one or two companions, he experiences the enjoy ment of an individual share in the management of the hunting, but this is denied to all fox-hunters, except such favoured individuals as the master or huntsman of the pack.
