A short film made in the beginning of year 2000, set in Corbett National Park, India. At the time of making this film, UP was undivided.

Filmed, scripted and produced by Dr.Susan Sharma.

Producer IndianWildlifeClub.com
Direction, videography Susan Sharma
Music S.P Sunny
Narrator Khodus Wadia
Corbett National Park nestles in the foothills of the Himalayas. It is the first national park of the Indian sub-continent and was the launching pad for the region's ambitious conservation plan called Project Tiger in 1974.
This 24 minute video was exclusively shot in Corbett Park and portrays the park from the viewpoint of a tourist. Corbett's magnificent forests with their rich flora and fauna attract some 48,000 tourists annually, many returning year after year for sightings of tigers, elephants, deer, ghariyals etc. and some 500 odd species of birds. The film looks at the conversion of Jim Corbett, the Nainital- born Britisher who founded the National Park, from hunter to protector of wildlife.
The park's employees - rangers, forest guards and mahouts face threats from wild animals and poachers. In the film you can meet Subedar Ali, the mahout who survived a tiger attack, spent a year in hospital and then came back to work in Corbett Park as a mahout, taking photographers and tourists for jungle trips.
The film is a tribute to the silent protectors of the tiger. It has been motivated by the belief that the Indian tiger has a better chance of survival when it is worth more alive than dead. Each tourist to the Park who has been lucky to sight a tiger goes back with unforgettable memories. Even those who don't manage seeing a tiger cannot but wonder at the Park's ambience, where elephants, deer and others are sure to make eye contact with you.
The film makes a subtle statement about saving the tiger through Subedar Ali; not in so many words as from the obvious passion this mahout has for wildlife.

    Way back in 1971, when I was a young boy, I found Mr. Corbett's book, "Man Eaters of Kumaon". I was fascinated back then and I am still captivated by the man's adventures. This beautiful video adds to the flavor of the book and the beauty of India.

    A film put together from the Hi8 footage of a tourist, in the year 2000. Is it worth watching? You decide. The film is a tribute to the silent protectors of the tiger. It has been motivated by the belief that the Indian tiger has a better chance of survival when it is worth more alive than dead. The film makes a subtle statement about saving the tiger through Subedar Ali; not in so many words as from the obvious passion this mahout has for wildlife. The film has been screened at the Delhi International Film festival for short and animation films in 2001 and was also screened at the Y.B Chavan Auditorium, Mumbai in November 2002 as one of the films selected at the IDPA Awards function. The film has been telecast by Gyandarshan Channel of Indira Gandhi National Open University.

    A great film and specially for me because I have frequented JCNP for many years. However a small mistake that I noticed was that the deer that was barking was not a Sambhar but rather a "Kakkad" or Barking Deer. Sambhar's dont make that kind of sound. Cheers!

    Jim Corbett was a great man. He undoubtedly saved many hundreds of human lives. If you think about how he walked possibly thousands of miles in some of the toughest terrain and high elevations during his lifetime. These tigers and panthers he hunted were killers some killing over 400 people each. These big cats had been hunted for years and were almost impossible to find. The world's greatest wildlife preserve is named after the world's greatest hunter JIM CORBETT
