Nayan mondhe
Nayan Mondhe’s story is deeply rooted in Tadoba, a forest landscape he has known not just as a destination, but as part of his life. Introduced to the wild by his uncle, who spent 25 years with the Forest Department, Nayan had one of his first tiger encounters at the age of 15. Since then, Tadoba has shaped his understanding of wildlife, people, and the rhythm of the forest.

For him, Tadoba is a living story to be respected, understood, and shared with care.
