The tiger, named Raja (the same name as a certain tiger king in Bandippur), is 25 years old and 10 months old, a Sundarbans tiger, he was kept in captivity at the rescue center in Jaldapara National Park in West Bengal, and it is reported that as early as 2008, Raja was taken to the rescue center, and on August 23, he received veterinary treatment in Kolkata because he was injured by a crocodile attack in Sundarbans. He was 12 years old at the time. Over time, he became the world's oldest captive male tiger (there was a female tiger in a zoo in Texas, USA, and she was 25 years old and 319 days old). So he is the star tiger of Jardapara National Park, he is different from other star tigers, he is captive, alas, remember when Raja was 25 years old, the whole Ofjara National Park gave him a birthday, and the Park Authority even held a knowledge test and painting competition to celebrate him. But now he has passed away, which is a pity, otherwise he can continue to fight for the world's oldest captive tiger. 【Image】
