Jackals in Kodaikanal have fine, thick coats, and look very different from the scrawny ones on the plains. Regrettably, I was very proud of myself when I shot one, skinned and tanned it. #SnakesDrugsRockNRoll

Gorgeous, impressive and mighty dangerous, the Russell’s viper doesn’t know it. My first ‘hot’ snake, at age 13, was at Berijam Lake in Kodaikanal. Little did I know then that Russell’s vipers kill tens of thousands of Indians. Neither do they! #SnakesDrugsRockNRoll

Nilgiri Tahr have the amazing ability to scale vertical cliffs and were very skittish in Kodaikanal. As a hunter-teenager, I tried stalking them, but my clumsiness on those steep escarpments could have cost me my life. #SnakesDrugsRockNRoll
