About this listen
Her tracks now–as she carried away the girl–led into the wilderness of rocks, some acres in extent, where the going was both difficult and dangerous. The cracks and chasms in between the rocks were masked with ferns, blackberry vines, and a false step, which might easily have resulted in a broken limb, would have been fatal. Progress under these conditions was of necessity slow, and the tigress was taking advantage of it to continue her meal. A dozen times I found where she had rested, and after each of these rests, the blood trail became more distinct.
This was her 436th human kill, and she was quite accustomed to being disturbed at her meals by rescue parties, but this, I think, was the first time she had been followed up so persistently, and she now began to show her resentment by growling. To appreciate a tiger's growl, it is necessary to be situated as I then was-rocks all round with dense vegetation between, and the imperative necessity of testing each footstep to avoid falling headlong into unseen chasms and caves.

riveting and thrilling
excellent audiobook very well narrated, felt like Jim Corbett might have been narrating. Mr. Corbett's writing style is informal and feels like a modern day learned many speaking, his tales are truly thrilling for all ages..several times I've had to stop whatever I was doing to listen intently on what happened next and how he got out of the depths of danger, and rather came out on top of the fight against the big wild cat.
