Kenneth Douglas Anderson (1910-1974) was born in India into a family of Scottish origin, long domiciled in India. His works have been popular with generations of nature lovers for their thriller-like readability and his extensive knowledge of the jungles of South India and of the natural world in general. Much like Jim Corbett, he has left behind a legacy of a sportsman with a conscience who lived and hunted with a code of ethics.
And so, by popular demand, here's one of his earliest stories. Although no dates are mentioned, the best guess is that the events described here took place sometime in the late 1930s or early 1940s. The Jowlagiri Reserve Forest is in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, on the border with Karnataka.
The narration is only meant to serve as a tribute to Mr. Anderson's exploits and as a small introduction to his body of work because the quality of his storytelling deserves to be read and acknowledged widely.
