Ecostani: Arrowhead, a tigress who lit up the forests of Ranthambore
Rarely does the death of a tiger or tigress mourned in India where animals are perceived to be enemies because of rising man-animal conflict cases. Arrowhead, the legendary Ranthambore tigress died on June 19 at an age of 11-years after suffering from bone cancer. (Instagram/sachin_rai_photography) That was not the case with Arrowhead, the legendary Ranthambore tigress, who died on June 19 at an age of 11-years. She died after suffering from bone cancer and died hours after her cub, Kankati, was translocated to the Mukundra Hills Tiger Reserve. Her death was widely covered in the media. Born in February 2014 to Krishna, daughter of the iconic tigress, Machli, Arrowhead (T-84) gave four litters through the years. Her two siblings, Lightning and Pacman, were also popular in Ranthambore but it was Arrowhead, who inherited the fame of her grandmother Machli, the most photographed tigress in the world. She got her name because of the arrow-like mark on her forehead, her sharp attack on the prey and calmness in her walk. The mark on her forehead helped tourists to identify her easily. Her last litter, born in January 2025, became a reason for her emotional distress, experts said. Arrowhead with her three cubs was sighted for the first time on July 25, 2023 in zone 2 of Ranthambore. She appeared ill, and her illness hampered her hunting capabilities. Forest rangers and guards feared that she and her cubs could starve. Ranthambore forest officials then decided to feed her meat nearly every day, bringing her close to the human population in Ranthambore's zone 2. The goodwill gesture did not help her cubs though, who also fed on the meat provided by the forest department, and then started looking for easy prey. Normally, a tigress trains her cubs to hunt before releasing them in the wild. Arrowhead was not able to perform this duty, which caused her distress. As the cubs got habituated to easy prey, Kankati allegedly killed a seven-year-old boy near the temple within the tiger reserve on April 17, and clamour grew to kill them. On May 11, she was accused of killing a forest ranger in the same area. Forest officials claimed that their preliminary investigation indicated that Kankati may have killed the two. However, there was no conclusive evidence. A desperate forest department decided to relocate her cubs to safer locations and Arrowhead to a new location away from humans. Arrowhead's male cub was shifted to Karauli's Kaila Devi Sanctuary on June 16. The female cub was shifted to Bundi's Ramgarh Vishdhari Tiger Reserve on June 17. On June 19, 2025, Kankati was sent to Mukundra Tiger Hills, which currently has 3 tigers. With her cubs not with her anymore, Arrowhead died in zone 2 and hours later her body was found in the shade of a tree. Three days before her death, Arrowhead killed a crocodile resting in Padam Talab (pond) in zone 2. She pounced on the prey and killed it instantly, showing her once fierce demeanour, which made her the most popular tigress in Ranthambore, like Machli. That was her last kill, according to the forest department officials. A video of her last walk recorded by wildlife photographer Sachin Rai showed a bony Arrowhead walking slowly and grinding in pain towards the crocodile. Arrowhead, like her grandmother, was known for killing crocodiles and was often spotted near water bodies, a reason for her being one of the most clicked tigresses in Ranthambore in recent times. Arrowhead dominated the territory in zone two, three and four, where once her mother and grandmother reigned and contributed significantly in turning Ranthambore into one of the most densely populated tiger reserves in the country. Ranthambore now has about 80 tigers with a healthy male and female mix and Arrowhead is responsible for about 50 of them that live in the family tree of Machli in Ranthambore. Known for her tenacity and courage, Arrowhead's death signifies the end of a magnificent era in the famed Ranthambore landscape, from where the Vindhya rises close to the Aravalli mountain range. More than that, her life and that of her grandmother Machli tells us that tourism and conservation can continue simultaneously, provided the former does not hamper the latter. A popular tigress like Arrowhead can ensure that thousands of people associated with tourism in Ranthambore continue to earn a livelihood, apart from maintaining the region's ecological balance. The contribution of the wild towards humanity's well-being is rarely appreciated. On the other hand, animals like Arrowhead are blamed when they try to protect their own space from human encroachments. Arrowhead's death should be a reminder of the importance of conserving wildlife habitats, which are being destroyed in the name of development.

Ranthambore Tigress Arrowhead Dies At 14. Watch Her Last Walk
Last Updated: A heartfelt Instagram post by a wildlife photographer featured a video capturing the final walk of Arrowhead, the beloved tigress of Ranthambore. Arrowhead, the tigress who once dominated the core of Rajasthan's Ranthambore, has passed away at the age of 14. A touching video shared by a wildlife photographer captures her final moments, offering a glimpse into her last few hours. According to NDTV, Tigress Arrowhead (T-84), a favourite among wildlife enthusiasts and Ranthambore visitors, died earlier this week. Her death occurred just hours after her daughter was moved to another tiger reserve. The news of Arrowhead's death has deeply saddened wildlife photographers, forest staff, and frequent safari visitors. One of them, nature photographer Sachin Rai, had been following her story since she was a cub. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Rai shared a video of what he described as her 'last walk," recorded near Padam Talab on June 17. In his post, Rai recalled witnessing Arrowhead's final moments on the evening of June 17. 'On the evening of June 17th, I witnessed what would likely be the last walk of the legendary tigress Arrowhead. It was heartbreaking to see her struggle, attempting to rise and take a few feeble steps before collapsing again," he wrote in his lengthy post. He described how Arrowhead, weakened by illness, moved with great difficulty, barely managing a few steps before resting beneath a tree. 'Each movement was a visible effort. In that quiet moment, I knew in my heart that the end was near," he added. But Rai's tribute extended beyond those last moments. He looked back on her remarkable journey—from a young cub to a dominant tigress who once claimed the very lands her mother ruled. 'I have followed Arrowhead's journey since she was a tiny cub. From those early days to watching her grow into a powerful tigress, every chapter of her life was a testament to resilience," he also explained. Posted on June 19, the video has garnered over 6.3 million views, drawing an outpouring of love and grief from social media users who were moved by Arrowhead's final moments. A user said, 'Heartbreaking to see a tiger like this." Another wrote, 'So graceful and resilient. Even in these last few moments. A symbol of strength." 'A wonderful legacy, but my heart breaks to see this queen in pain. She is now at peace," a user wrote on Instagram. 'May the queen find the eternal rest she deserves," an individual commented. Who was Arrowhead? Arrowhead came from Ranthambore's famed tiger lineage, being the daughter of Krishna (T-19) and the granddaughter of the iconic tigress Machhli (T-16). Known to many as the 'Queen of Ranthambore', she held a special place in the hearts of wildlife lovers. Forest officials reportedly revealed that she had been suffering from advanced bone cancer and was being closely monitored during her final weeks.

Ranthambore's fierce queen dies: The legacy of Arrowhead, the tigress who took on a crocodile in her final days
Arrowhead, the descendant of the famed tigress Machli of Ranthambore Tiger Reserve, has died after a prolonged illness. The queen was battling bone cancer that left her frail, impacting her ability to prey. However, before taking her last breath, the big cat ambushed a crocodile, the epic hunt steeped in deep symbolism read more The queen is dead. Arrowhead, the famed tigress of the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve, took her last breath on Thursday (June 19), leaving behind a storied legacy. Also known as T-84, the big cat was captured taking down a crocodile just days before her death. Visuals of the kill spread widely online, standing out for their symbolism. As Ranthambore bids adieu to Arrowhead, we take a look at her legacy. Arrowhead reigns supreme Arrowhead was the granddaughter of Machli, or T-16, arguably the most photographed tigress in the world. Known for her courage, Machli was the Queen of Ranthambore. She was once the oldest living tiger in the world, who passed away at the age of 20 in 2016. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Born in 2014 to popular tigress T-19 or Krishna, Arrowhead came from an iconic tiger bloodline. Arrowhead's father was Star Male, also known as T-28, a dominant tiger in the Rajasthan's Ranthambore Tiger Reserve. Arrowhead got her name due to a distinct arrow mark on her left cheek. Image Courtesy: fotokatha The tigress got her name due to a distinct arrow mark on her left cheek. Arrowhead grew up in the main wilderness of the reserve, along with her siblings Lightning and Pacman. Arrowhead reportedly established her territory in zones two, three, and four of the reserve. Zone three, the largest territory in Ranthambore, was ruled by her mother, Krishna, for five years before her daughter took over. A well-known tigress, tourists on safari jeeps visiting Ranthambore were eager to see Arrowhead. And the big cat lapped up all the attention. The final hunt The Queen of Ranthambore battled bone cancer for several months. During her last days, she was just a shadow of her former self, with her bones sticking out and sagging flesh. Arrowhead's last hunt was outstanding due to its symbolism. Her grandmother, Machli, was famous as the 'crocodile killer' at her time. Arrowhead lived up to the family legacy. Just days back, the tigress was captured ambushing a crocodile despite her frail health. In a video that went viral, she can be seen jumping into Padam Talab near Jogi Mahal in zone three, grabbing the crocodile's neck, dragging it out and taking it to the forest. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The clips of the epic hunt went viral, serving as a reminder of her grandmother's skills and bravery. Days after the notable hunt, Arrowhead died on Thursday due to her prolonged illness. 'With a heavy heart, we share the heartbreaking news from Ranthambore. Tigress Arrowhead (T-84), the pride of our forest, daughter of Krishna and granddaughter of legendary Machli, has passed away,' Ranthambhore National Park's official Instagram account said in a heartfelt post. Arrowhead's death came just a few hours after her daughter, RBT 2507, or Kankati – a 23-month-old tigress, was moved to Mukundara Tiger Reserve. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Wildlife photographer Sachin Rai, who saw her just two evenings before the tigress' death, told Indian Express, 'It was heartbreaking to see her struggle, attempting to rise and take a few feeble steps before collapsing again. Each movement was a visible effort; even walking ten steps seemed an enormous task. Eventually, she reached a tree and lay beneath it. In that quiet moment, I knew in my heart that the end was near, just a matter of a day or two.' He shared a video of the 'last walk' of Arrowhead near the Padam Talab. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'She lived a full life. She had cubs, some memorable hunts, and towards the end, a life-threatening illness. She did it all like a queen—the Queen of Ranthambore,' a forest official from the reserve told ThePrint. ALSO READ: International Tiger Day: How nature tourism helped conserve the big cats in India The notorious daughter Kankati, the young daughter of Arrowhead, was relocated to Mukundara Tiger Reserve on Thursday morning after she killed two people. She is believed to be behind the death of forest ranger, Devendra Chaudhary, on May 11 and a seven-year-old child at Ranthambore Fort on April 16. The attacks raised questions about live baiting that was offered to her ailing mother. Live baiting refers to offering a live prey animal to a predator. Since her birth, Kankati and her two siblings witnessed live bait provided to Arrowhead. According to experts, this repeated feeding to Arrowhead made Kankati and possibly her siblings lose their natural caution of humans, leading to the two fatal attacks. 'Wild tigers can be fed only as an emergency measure. If a tigress with cubs gets an injury and is unable to hunt, baiting can be tried to improve her condition but only once in two weeks and for not more than three months. You can not prolong this as tigers get familiar and fearless with humans,' veteran conservationist Valmik Thapa was quoted as saying by Indian Express. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Live baiting to attract tigers is banned. However, the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) does not prohibit but says it is 'not advisable' when dealing with old or injured tigers in the wild.
