T-98’s life story depicts a saga of survival and resilience as he stands against all odds of nature by keeping himself in a dominating position inside the park.
The well-known tiger T-98, sometimes referred to as MT-3, will always be remembered for his romance and spirit of exploration. His passion for his sweetheart motivated his incredible, previously unheard-of journey of 150 kilometers across three districts.
He also had a vicious side, which came to light when alienated from his lover, he is said to have attacked Nauranti Devi, a woman who was 62 at the time and had gone to the forest to gather firewood. The woman was struck and carried deep into the forest. She lived in the Bramhapuri neighborhood of Sawai Madhopur district, adjacent to Ranthambore National Park.
