Investigative guides which reveal amazing facts about members of the animal kingdom.

This episode features Tara, a two-year-old tiger living in India's Ranthambhore National Park in a territory that she shares with her father and mother. The tiger is the biggest of all the big cats, bigger than even its closest cousin, the lion. Unlike the lion, the tiger doesn't rely on teamwork, but always hunts alone.

Ranthambhore's tigers are spoilt for choice when it comes to food. The park has huge herds of deer and more formidable prey like giant wild cattle, buffalo and nilgai. Despite all this, tigers are only successful in one out of every 15 hunts and they are such a dangerous foe that many animals try to kill them when they are young.

Will Tara's parents be able to protect her until she is fully grown?
