Machali is by far the most famous tigress of Ranthambhore and one of the most photographed tiger in the entire world. She has starred in a number of documentaries – the best known of which is, “Danger in tiger’s paradise” , by the BBC Wildlife Division.

Machli has been documented raising litters of cubs, hunting crocodiles and has given the world great insights of the tiger world. Our very own group has witnessed magical sightings of Machli, at times hunting, and once fighting with a crocodile over a sambhar deer.

Sundari or T-17, one of Machli's cubs has taken over Machli's territory and is said to carry over much of her mothers characteristics. Not shy by any standard - much like her mother - she is known to delight visitors with her wild antics.

Many say that she has the makings of the new queen  and we totally agree.
