The Search for a Tiger | Pench Tiger Reserve | Ep- 1

🎥 Wildlife • Tiger Safari • Indian Wildlife • Nature & Forest Stories Welcome to Papiha Calls — a journey through India’s jungles, told through the wildlife we encounter. In Episode 1: The Tiger Territory, we travel from Mumbai to Pench Tiger Reserve and enter through the iconic Turia Gate for our first morning safari. As the forest wakes up around us, spotted deer move through the grass, birds fill the morning with calls, and every alarm call makes us wonder what might be hiding somewhere ahead. We’re hoping to find Bijamatta, a tigress known to frequent the area around the waterbody. But a tiger safari isn’t always about finding a tiger. Sometimes it’s about waiting. Listening. Watching the forest come alive. And wondering what might appear around the next bend. The search has begun. 📍 LOCATION Pench Tiger Reserve, Madhya Pradesh, India 🌿 SEASON Late June — End of Summer / Pre-Monsoon 📷 WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEO GEAR Camera: Nikon Z8Lens: NIKKOR Z 180–600mm f/5.6–6.3 VRLens: NIKKOR Z 70–200mm f/2.8 VR S Iphone 15 Pro GoPro Hero 12 If you enjoy immersive wildlife journeys, natural forest sounds and stories from India’s jungles, subscribe to Papiha Calls and join us on the journey. #PapihaCalls #PenchTigerReserve #TigerSafari #IndianWildlife
