- The largest mangroves in the world, the Sunderban Biosphere has been conserved and protected by a very hard working and diligent work force. This documentary for the West Bengal forest department is a tribute to the brave guards work in one of the most dangerous and difficult terrains in the world.
We are proud of Sundarban and West Bengal Forest Department.
সুন্দরবন ❤️। ভয়ংকর ভাবে সুন্দর ❤️। দেবনাথ বাবুর সাহসিকতা 🙏। প্রতিদিন এভাবে সুন্দরবনের মানুষ দের দিন কাটাতে হয়। ভাবলেই গায়ে কাঁটা দিচ্ছে। Hats off 🙏
They love the mangroves and the Royal Bengal 🐅 Tigers also.....Pronam to all of you, you all are the last hope of survival for sundorbon's ecological balance from the plastic world
Excellently made. I was an audience for its 1st screening at St Joseph's College, and it was so liked by me that it attracted me back here on youtube. My salute to all forest guards!!!
Many thanks!

Excellent documentary, my father trained as a forest ranger in the sunderbans in the 50s and we still have his photos of that time, he had a book called the Man Eaters of the Sunderbans, I must have read it a thousand times, my father loved the jungles and being a forest officers kids we spent a great part of our childhood in the forests, I love and respect the forest guards.
Thank You. Great to hear your story and your dads service to the forests in India. Would love to see those pics
Have spent a decade working with these guys and am as much in it for their cause and support. have published my book "The Tigers Behind the Tigers" In India. you can see our work here with the guards. and my book also

It's said in Sundarbon, "if you have seen the tiger, you'll remain alive". Because almost all the tiger victims didn't get the chance to see their killer. As tiger is an ambush predator, all happens within seconds before anyone can react. No weapon can be used at that time. Bcos, you need to see the tiger to aim or fire. Even before one draws the weapon, the hunter vanishes with the hunted. It's also said, "you can see a tiger only when the tiger wants you to see him". The tigers chooses and keeps watching his target for hours from invisible position, waiting for the right moment. The only way of survival in Sundarbon from tiger attack is to remain alert and not to give any chance to the tiger to ambush you.
Jim colbert and Kenneth Anderson had no problem killing maneaters it's a great pity they not there today but even if they were they would not be allowed to kill the maneaters what madness to put an evil killer beast over the lives of children
Excellent documentary! Proud of Indian forest guards and officers! Only english subtitles are needed during the invaluable experience sharings by forest guards in bengali.
Many Thanks. Yes the subtitles are needed and will come up soon.
Nice
sumana dam yes
We want to hear that real experience
Pls upload subtitle
As I am bengali I can enjoy the bengali conversion part. @Mr Shashidhar Vempala, if needed I can translate that part in english.
@@sumanadam348 do have some more videos or any story of sundarban
More needs to be done. Proper equipped modern boats with high beam flash lights and safety gear would make these guards life more easier. Great work.
We have to do it naturally if u use modern technology it might affect the forest u have to be gentle and leave the forest and let the forest owner I mean the animals to live as they wish
Use high beam flash light at your home😀😀.
Are you a idiot? Modern boats cant go close to the shores lights are against the law in forest you
Nice work man! After few days I am going to join west bengal forest department as a forest guard.

Jose Sixto mozkov plzzz tell the names of 2 politicians plzz pplz
Asadharon laglo,(fantastic ❤️)🙏
Thank You So much!
Govt. should give them New Weapon coz they are risking their life"s every second to protect this Forest
@SonOf Gazorpazorp exactly
SonOf Gazorpazorp While your question is quite valid from an outsiders point of view, I will try to give you another perspective...Purpose of weapons are two fold. Firstly to offer protection as the tigers of Sunderbans are notorious for their aggressiveness towards humans and forest workers as well as villagers are at high risk when entering the forest. As a standard procedure, there guards are trained to fire in the air to scare the animal away incase he gets a chance under a tiger charge.
Secondly the weapon is also for protecting against poachers.
Right
Thanks Mr.Mondal
I live in canada from last 30 years but I always miss my India......
Excellent work buddy. The world needs to know how difficult it is to work in these mangroves!
Many Thanks for the encouragement!
Excellent work!
Beautiful presentation
Great work .
Proud of you rajib da..
Excellent work..... But The Forest Guard`s Name is `Rajib Naskar` not Mondal.....kindly correct it plz.....
Many Thanks for pointing out. Will be corrected in future releases, uses of the film. Changes on this youtube version will not be possible.

World class documentary. Excellent video coverage . Messages are clear.
Great effort by the forest department, an inspiration to tiger conservation. but missed subtitles in English at crucial points

thank you!
The Floating camp is in Sajnekhali - right ? Loved the documentary right.
Its in SadokKhali... not very far from Sajnekahali, just about the next turn, after about 20-30mins by boat.
@@SashidharVempalaPhotography , Thank you so very much !
Hi Sashi- Its Laxman from Telco colony (M-8/3). Ibumped into this documentary of yours and your name caught my attention. Great work man
hey Lakshman. where are u. great to hear from you. Message me on Instagram, will share my number. Insta ID is - Sashidhar Vempala
We are proud of our Sundar ban
Awesome...
Many Thanks!
Good work indians for saving tigers....our government in bangladesh has finally learned something from you
Thank You. We have more tigers there in Bangladesh side, and the boundaries don't matter, it's eventually the ecosystem with the people, tiger and forest, that needs to be saved.
@@SashidharVempalaPhotography bangladeshi government didnt do anything to save the tigers before....in 2004 there were 440 tigers in bd side....so everybody was relaxed.... Nobody did anything....poachers killed and sold tiger body parts freely...then in 2015 our leading newspaper prothom alo did an investigation and found out that there were only 106 tigers left in the bangladesh side....so the government finally woke up....in last 3 years tigers have increased from 106 to 114....that happened becausr of brutal crackdown of the poachers and pirates of sundarban....lot of them were killed in shootout with the police and some of them surrendered...sundarban in bangladesh is finally free of poachers.... Hope the tigers grow in numbers in future in both bangladesh and bharat...but quite anxious today because the cyclone hit sundarbans today i fear.....anyways salam bro....keep protecting the tigers....they are the pride of both india and bangladesh
@@RHasan-yy1fb Thanks for Sharing! May the tribe live.
R. Hasan the survey in 2004 its worked in wrong method ,bangladesh sunderban never had a huge number like 400+ and sunderban is not suitable home for tigers,and the size of this forest cannot bear 400+ tigers ,so i think last survey which is worked in camera traping.the results like 106 or 114 is more believable then 440
Sundarbans is our pride of Bangladesh 🇧🇩and West Bengal
im proud to be a Bengali & Bangladeshi also.🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅
This place situated east or west
So good...

Can I get background music link?
Its a mix of work by various people, some stock and copy righted, so I won't be able to help you. But you can get similar stock music on many sites like Audio block, Audio Jungle.
Super super good welcome
Now hope Bangladesh also has to work to save them
Even their forest department is as efficient as ours....
@@subratasadhukhan7471 that's a good news then
Great
Thank You So much!
damn it ! i cannot read the translation . why so small ?
title must have been " guardians of Sajnekhali" .....in my openion its a group effort but there is no mention of Range Officers ,AFD ,DFD and others ,whereas they play the most crucial role to manage the whole situation...In the audio there should have been the glimpses of how all the officials work together by considering each others faults and merits..
These brave forest guards must also be given tasers along with guns, just in case if a tiger launches an attack they can destabilise the tiger temporarily without having to shoot and kill it.
There are hardly any case of forest guards shooting and killing a tiger. It is the poachers who shoot and kill tigers. These guns are for shooting in the air to scare away tigers and for protection against poachers. There are far more forest guards who are killed by poachers than tigers.
@@damodaran2629I am very well aware of the fact that forest rangers wont shoot the tiger but for their own protection if the tiger launches an attack even after firing in air the guards can still use a taser to defend and save themselves from the wild beast. A tiger would not be able to differentiate between a guard or a poacher, they are both are intruders for him in his territory. Hope you get my point.
@@verilyhumane6056 l am from Sunderban . I can tell you Tigers are very smart animals and they immidiately leave the area after haaring a gunshot. In my 50 years in Sunderbans l do not remember of hearing of any forest guards who has been killed by a tiger. It is usually the poor villagers who go into the forest for fishing , collecting honey or wood who are attacked and killed by tigers.
plz visit sundarbaan bangladash

The man - animal conflict should be controlled by erecting fences along the villages not along the mangrove island by blocking the way of tigers walk.
No subtitles
A lot of people have asked ,me. Subtitles will be up by 1st Feb. Many thanks for watching.
Subtitles have been put, you can watch the section in case you want to. Thanks for watching
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
How should the animals will drink water when the guards have put a net there?
Explain please
The animals don't drink the sea water as it is salty. they only drink from the fresh rainwater sources, on the islands. Also, the net fencing is only towards the village side and only for some 90 running km. the rest of the sides, and islands are completely free. So there is no problem for the animals to move also. Also each day there is high and low tide and the water goes onto the islands through the net. :)
@@SashidharVempalaPhotography thanks a lot brother
আমাদের বাংলাদেশের সুন্দরবন অংশের তুলনায় ভারতের অংশে বাঘ বেশী । কখনো ওয়েস্ট বেঙ্গল গেলে ঐ অংশের সুন্দরবন দেখার অনেক ইচ্ছা
এই ইনফরমেশনটা কোথা থেকে পেলেন?
কে বলসে ভাই বাঘ বেশী?? ঘনত্বের দিক থেকে বেশী কিন্তু ভারতের সুন্দরবনে বাঘ আছে ৭০+ আর আমাদের সুন্দরবনে ১১৪

I'm surprised the HinduNazis haven't rape them yet!
