The bachelor was one of many tigers shot by jim corbett. He was the largest.
Though known as a man eater hunter, most of cats he shot werent man eaters.
In his last season before he quit shooting he "used every trick in the book" to bag tigers.
What is also not mentioned in books that a tiger shooting permit was given to the hunter who shot a maneater for free. While Corbett hunted, majority of maneaters in India were in an area within hunting distance of Corbett's home.

He still is my hero and nothing will take that away.
