T-24, also known as Ustad is a tiger which lived in Ranthambore National Park, India and which has killed four humans leading to its being taken into captivity.[1]

History

T-23, T-24 and T-25 are the offspring of tigress T-22 and, most likely, the tiger T-20. Born in the Lahpur region, a core area of the National Park, it moved to the Sawai Man Singh Sanctuary and later to Zone 1, adjoining the entrance. Weighing 250 kilograms (550 lb), T-24 was the dominant tiger in the area for many years, overshadowing two others. T-24's mate was tigress T-39, also known as Noor. The pair had three offspring - a tiger, Sultan or T72, four years old, and two 14-month-olds, as of May 2015 when T-24 was translocated. T-24 had a history of severe constipation and once had an infected paw. Recently he was facing competition from other tigers in his territory due to his advancing age.[1][2]
