Tigers may be excellent hunters, but things can get rough in the woods in the worst of times. 

A starving and desperate Mona the tigress attempts to stalk and kill a wild dog pup, but is unable to pull off the kill because she quickly tires from the chase. 

The wild dog pack senses Mona’s weakness, and return to take her on. 

The story of Mona and her three tigress sisters, Geeta, Lara, and Sonam, will be told in a one-hour Discovery Channel special, Tigress Blood, on Thursday, September 25, at 9:00 p.m. EDT. 

According to the show’s synopsis, Tigress Blood is a: “coming-of-age story as the four sisters battle each other for dominance over their homeland.

“Once the girls grow older and stronger, instinct kicks in and they must separate and compete to take their mother’s place for control of Telia Lake.

“Their bond is broken and the family is torn apart.

“To survive independently, each sister must make one large kill every week — and alone, they each struggle.

“Desperate and starving, the four sisters make a startling choice.

“They join forces to hunt as a pack and take on dangerous prey, culminating in a never-before-filmed hunt of a tiger family taking down a sloth bear.”

 

The video is available for viewers in the United States only.
