Colin Stafford-Johnson pieces together the final days of tiger cub Broken Tail.

Wildlife documentary. Colin Stafford-Johnson pieces together the final days of tiger cub Broken Tail, who survived for almost a year in rural Rajasthan.

Broken Tail was the most flamboyant tiger cub Colin Stafford-Johnson had seen during many years spent filming India's wild tigers. After leaving his sanctuary and going on the run, Broken Tail survived for almost a year where many said it was impossible, in the unprotected badlands of rural Rajasthan.

Tracking Broken Tail's extraordinary journey, Colin and his soundman, Salim, piece together the cub's final days and, through Broken Tail's story, uncover stark truths about India's last wild tigers.
