Meet With Di`Nadu

When Di`Nadu was 4½ months old he watched not only his mother, but also his father be slain by poachers, and his siblings be carried off by them. A smart young cub for his age his instincts told him to hide and he remained as the only one within his family left. Lost and with no one to care and look after him Di`Nadu ventured out on his own into the woods, where he spent nights in caves and under bushes along the jungle floor, he would feed off the old carcuses left behind by other predators, and small critters along the ground that were slow enough for him to catch. Di`Nadu carried on this way for nearly a month, hidding in the bushes when his instincts told him to hide, and often waiting sometimes for days for larger predators to finish with their meals so he could eat off the bones, and catching whatever small critter he could in order to feed himself. Di`Nadu eventually caught the scent of other tigers and followed it unto the temple ruins where out in the open lounging in the sun he met Rajah and Shasadee as well as a few others, and has ever since been a tiger of the temple, he now depends on his tiger friends that are his new largely extended family for protection, food, love and support. (Di`Nadu has been with us since Feburary 20, 2006.)
