Framed Print of The first tiger shot by Prince Bughwan Singh, aged twelve, 1895. Creator: J. Cowell
The first tiger shot by Prince Bughwan Singh, aged twelve, 1895. Our Illustration represents his Highness Prince Bughwan Singh, eldest son and heir of H.H. the Maharaj Rana of Dholpore, sitting over his first tiger. This young lad, who has not yet attained his twelfth birthday, has inherited the sporting proclivities of his father, who ranks first as a shot, rider, and pig-sticker among the chiefs of India. The Maharaj Rana has won every one of the pig-sticking trophies in India, and thereby holds the championship. The young Prince formed one of a party with his father after big game last month, and with a.360-boro shot his tiger through the heart. Perfectly indifferent to the hazard which envelops the vicinity of a wounded tiger, he seemed to feel that he had given him his quietus in that single shot; and as the beast rolled over into the thicket he plunged in after him, and when found was sitting on a rock with his feet on his victim, calling out to the beaters to ask his Highness the Maharaj Rana to come on'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
