Kanah National Park... where tigers were hard to spot

I went to Kanah National Park in search of tigers. But it turned out that the tigers there weren't really up for being viewed at that time.
We did see lots of different types of deer though and many, many peacocks. We also saw some rather sweet little owls in a hole in a tree, and a bison who liked to climb almost vertical banks.
In terms of cats, we did get a very good viewing of a jungle cat. He was perhaps a little bit bigger than a domestic cat at home, with spiky tufts of hair at the end of his pointy ears. We also got to sort of see a family of tigers. They were in the bamboo though and were very hard to spot. At first one of the cubs moved and you could see from the shape of it's head that it was a cat, but as to what at it was, well, it could have been anything - it was too dark in the bamboo to tell. Then another cub got up and walked through the bamboo. This time for a few seconds you could see that it was indeed a real life tiger. However, as it quickly blended in with the bamboo and went out of sight, you could also see how well they camouflage.
Although clear tiger sightings escaped us, we did see lots of tiger footprints and the huge scratch marks from their claws on some of the trees.
I also had my first experience of climbing on top of a bus in India.
