Reign of fearless Arrowhead ends in Ranthambore

JAIPUR: Tigress T-84, better known as Arrowhead, who rose to fame as a fearless crocodile hunter, breathed her last near Jogi Mahal in Ranthambore Tiger Reserve on Thursday. The 11-year-old tigress, who carried forward the legacy of her iconic grandmother Machhli, was battling bone tumour for several months.A senior forest official said: “The body of T-84 was cremated at Rajbagh in the tiger reserve. Many people, including wildlife photographers who documented her journey, nature guides and other well-wishers, gathered to pay their final respects. The cremation was carried out in accordance with the NTCA protocol dated March 18, 2013.”Arrowhead was first sighted in March 2014, after being born to Krishna (T-19) and Star Male (T-28), descendants of the legendary tigress Machhli (T-16), who had earned the nickname ‘Crocodile Killer’ for similar daring hunts. She was named ‘Arrowhead’ due to the distinctive arrow-shaped mark on her left cheek. Alongside her siblings, Lightning and Pacman, she grew up in the core wilderness of Ranthambore.She was particularly famed for her ability to kill crocodiles – an extraordinary feat that drew awe.A cancerous tumour on Arrowhead’s hind leg eventually blunted her hunting prowess, which led forest officials to offer her, and her three cubs, live baits. The cubs, now sub-adults, were deemed a threat to human safety after they killed three people in May, and were relocated to Kota, Bundi and Dholpur.
