Anderson's love-hate relationship with panthers and tigers who terrorised the villagers and were eventually hunted down by the author in hair-raising encounters is legendary. In this book the jungle scenario is crowded with a hyena, a jackal, a bear, a barking deer and a few snakes which the hunter-writer tamed and kept as pets around him.
