As of today, in season, building toward peak (~July 1). Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
In the Sundarbans mangrove delta, Royal Bengal tigers (Panthera tigris tigris) regularly swim creeks and across broad estuaries.
Swimming and inter-island movement increase when water levels rise during the southwest monsoon.
Boat-based safaris to watchtowers and river channels are the only practical way to attempt sightings, but tidal and weather conditions strongly affect access and visibility.
