Wild Tales From The Wild
If the surrounding jungles were teeming with wildlife of every variety, the life that the humans of the area led was no less wild. Here, he recounts the adventures that he had with some of them: the leopard who moved into 'bison cottage', the dining hall cobra, the magnificent Mangala tiger, Torn Ears, the most-photographed gaur of his time, and the elephants whom he loved with a passion, Colonel Hathi, Jayaprakash and even the Right-chipped Tusker with his bullying ways, amongst them.
Not to be outdone were the members of the Kuruba tribe and other humans €“ Mr B, the family expert, the elderly manager with a raging libido, the gorgeous foreign girls who almost saw him booted out of the family €“ who came to share his life at Bush Betta, the wildlife resort that he set up in 1991. Hair-raising and hilarious, these are stories that anyone who has had a taste of the wilds, or wished that they could, will enjoy, as much for their drama and comedy as for the many fascinating insights into animal behaviour that they convey.
No less compelling is the message between the lines: the grandeur and beauty of India's forests, and the need to preserve them at all costs. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Saad Bin Jung has spent more than twenty years travelling through the forests of India and Africa.
When ill health compelled him to give up his first career of professional cricket, he turned to his other passion €“ wildlife. Today, in addition to the Bush Betta resort, he also runs angling and adventure camps in different jungles and Bush Betta trekking adventures.
A scion of the royal families of Pataudi and Bhopal and the Paigah Wali ud Dowla of Hyderabad, he was a member of the Wildlife Advisory Board of Karnataka and is in the forefront of the eco-tourism movement that strives to use tourism as an integral tool for conservation
