For some reason Anderson falls short of Corbett in the popular imagination, although his exploits were every bit as gripping

@johnmead8437

It has been claimed some of the problem beasts Anderson writes about have no official records to back them up. And like a few other hunting authors who believe their reviews, he diverts to writing imaginary romances about these beasts in a couple of instances. A few of the tales have uncanny similarities. It would be informative if the research could provide any light on supporting evidence (it apparently exists for some). Comparisons with Corbett need to compare the relative avoidable risks each took, both to themselves and to others. Anderson's stories tell of a greater tolerance for this and some incredible near misses when maneaters attacked. Corbett shot several nearly touching him, 2 asleep and one called up literally to the barrel. When ambushed and charged his clinical handling of the situations (& luck in one case) sorted the situation, Anderson relates several situations where his survival can only be attributed to luck and bravery when foolhardy situations had been contrived.

@selvalore

2 жыл бұрын

Very interesting question. Let me take a stab at this because you raise an important point. An extension of your point has been raised by others as well in these and other comment section as to why the locals were unable to defend themselves with these animals inflicting a heavy human toll. The point about the locals not having any weapons on them is not true. Knives, swords and country made pistols were common amongst locals. Anderson talks about locals using their muzzle loaders several times in his books. During Corbett's time, the British kept a tight control over the sale of firearms for obvious reasons. Accordingly, Corbett has addressed the bravery of the kumaon and garhwal people at length in several of his stories (Chowgarh tigers during the bear hunt, Kanda and then in the epilogue for Rudraprayag maneater). I think Corbett's non-man eater books are more revealing in this regard. These people are a martial tribe, and send a sizeable proportion of men to the modern day Indian army. The British back in their days had multiple regiments from these areas fight for them in both World Wars. They are naturally hardy due to the rugged himalayan terrain. There are 2 issues at play here- the terrain and superstitious beliefs. A good portion of them were convinced this was a shaitan (satan or evil spirit) and had come to exact revenge for their bad karma (or something that they once did or didn't do). They were simple, unsophisticated, god fearing, religious people who put a little too much emphasis on their fate being pre-ordained. This, combined with their deep belief in the supernatural, would paralyze any person in the dead of the night when these attacks occurred. The same thinking prevailed in this case in the south of India. Then there was the terrain. Corbett country is so exceptionally rugged (as you no doubt are aware) and every village and terraced field was bordered back then by heavy jungle. The terrain in south India with dense monsoon rainforest give ample cover for predators to hide too. Also, this is an important point of consideration. Unless you are Wesley Snipes, even if you have a firearm on you and you have your weapon cocked and ready to fire at all times, it won't be much help if you get ambushed out of the blue by these master predators. Most of the attacks happened when people were going about their lives, working in the fields, collecting firewood or herding cattle. Excuse the long windedness.
