Bachelor of Powalgarh
Unusually large Bengal tiger shot by Jim Corbett in 1930
Bachelor of Powalgarh
The Bachelor of Powalgarh (fl. 1920–1930) also known as the King of Powalgarh, was an unusually large male Bengal tiger, said to have been 3.23 m (10 ft 7 in) long. From 1920 to 1930, the Bachelor was the most sought-after big-game trophy in the United Provinces. The British hunter Jim Corbett shot and killed the Bachelor in the winter of 1930, and later told the story in his 1944 book Man-Eaters of Kumaon.
