In the jungle there was a lot of wildlife, but we were trying to find big cats, especially tigers We climbed onto the elephants' backs to get better view, but it is unusual to find tigers in the afternoon because they sleep in the heat o the day Then, in the distance, we saw a tiger, and Kamal told me to be very quiet We crept nearer and found a dead deer still bleeding This was the tiger's lunch! Suddenly, I started to feel very frightened
We heard the tiger a second before we saw it It jumped out like a flash of lightning, five hundred kilos plus and four meters long I looked into its eyes and face, and saw right down the animal's throat It grabbed Kornal's between its teeth, but I managed to pull Kamal away One of our elephants ran at the tiger and made it go back into the grass, so we quickly escaped to let the tiger cat its lunch That night it was impossible to sleep!
