A tiger! There! Black stripes moving slowly through the bushes.
I was seeing with my own eyes the largest, most charismatic cat on Earth — and the most endangered. Looking down a draw, 40 yards off, I watched the tigress creep forward. For a moment, I could see her head well. Then she disappeared behind a thick-leaved tree.
Gone.
