We are rolling through the morning mists on a dirt road in the forest, sunlight angling in as through a cathedral window. Our safari jeep driver slows, and from the passenger seat the guide leans over the door to stare into the roadside dust. He smiles when he sees a print and points back the way we came; the driver swings us around and we head west. Turns out tigers like easy travel as much as anyone and often follow the roads.
