“Tense direction, good acting by Corey and Sabu. Corbett was an animal rights enthusiast but shot and killed a lot of big cats in his day. Many Indian villagers owed their lives to him.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMany people look at sadistic murderers and tigers in the same way, i.e., itu0026#39;s not their fault. This to me is sickening.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLovers of tigers need to know that tigers hunt and kill 300 villagers a year in the Sundabans mangrove swamps on the Bay of Bengal. Shamefully, the Indian government protects these tigers at the expense of its human population. This is not laudable to me. Iu0026#39;m sure PETA animal lovers would not wish to hunt wood in the swamps of the Sundabands, infested as it is with over 500 man-eating tigers.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo much for the romance of the big cats.”
