Man Eater of PaharPani by J.E. Carrington Turner | Adventure Audiobook | Audiostory
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Joshua Edgar Carrington Turner, was a contemporary of Jim Corbett and spent many years in Kumaon, in the employ of the Indian Forest Service (IFS). He retired in 1955 and wrote of his experiences in the book, "Man Eaters and Memories" (1959).
This story, taken from the same book, recounts the author's experience with a man-eating tiger while on official duty in the forest divisions of Kumaon. Of particular note is the author's speculative interest towards the end in understanding the reasons that lead to the frequent emergence of man-eaters in the subdivision of Kumaon.

My pleasure and thanks for the comment!
I had been waiting patiently for an upload for a long time. Finally it happened today. Thank you for this, dear friend!
Thank you and lovely to hear from you again!
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!! I was beginning to try and figure out how I'm going to start going through monthly life without you dropping a video man. It wasn't looking good for me! Hahaha, thank you again
Hello Nick, great to see you're still here. Thanks for commenting!
Thank you for sharing this. Stoked! I have been looking for this book for a few years now unsuccessfully.
I understand Vikram. A listener sent me this book to read, otherwise it's hard to get your hands on these rare books. Thanks for commenting!
Great job, as always. Keep producing more of this kind of audiobook. I love your style of reading. Absolutely fascinating!
I will do the best I can. Thank you for commenting!
'the shaitan has become so bold that sometimes when he has not been able to break down the door of a house, he has dug a hole through the mud wall, and got at his victims in the way.' Rudraprayag.
This line read by you is a classic. It takes the listener back in time.
Written by the great man! I'm looking forward to re-recording that book in the near future.
The speciality of Jim corbett's writting is he will take you with him in the haunt,,, each & every single details are there,,, its like you are there,,,, he was more of a great writer than being the legendary haunter...its a rare quality...
People loved him,,,, many people thinks he left india because of india's Liberation,, thats is not the truth.,
The truth is,,, during ww2,, when England asked india's recruitment
In exchange of freedom,,, jim corbett actively participated in the recruitment of indians,,,, he had his reason (being half british was a stima ),,, he wanted to do SOMETHING for england,,, and he knew no one he ask will refuse him,, and thats what exactly happened,, he himself managed to recruite a huge deal of soldiers willing to fight,, not for england,, but for they loved him,,
not realizing what could be the consequences,,,,,, his emotion clauded his decision and judgement,,, a lot died,, a lot got paralysed for life,,, a lot lost their body parts,, a lot suffered trauma,,
and he blammed himself,, some say he even tried to commit suicide (but it has no basis),,,,. ,
but he left india,,,,
But people loved him so much,,,, they still celebrates the rudraprayag loeperd killing day ,,, they themself named a heritage after him,, a british name,,, for the pure respect and love they had still have for him,,,,
He never married,, , he had siblings,, he had a dog called robin,, that betrayed him by running away after sensing a loeperd leaving mr. Corbett alone,,,
Bro, been waiting for months on end for your next release. Please keep releasing videos more often. A sincere subscriber
Thank you for commenting. I will do the best I can.

Brilliant as always mate. Your voice makes it feel like you are right there and at the same time takes you far, far away. Greetings from sunny Scotland
Thank you! Great to hear from you again, Danny.
Thank you for these audiobooks. The world of audible needs narrators like you
I only wish for the stories to be longer and more frequent ❤
Thanks for the support!
The wait was worth it. Thanks for another lovely story flawlessly rendered Mr Viraj Singh.
Many thanks...
Again, thank you for listening and for the comment, Mr. Agarwal!
All these audio books are enjoyable… thank you for this one excellent.
Thank you for listening, Paul!
What a great reading and history of your experiences and priceless knowledge of the Indian Jungles ,And the behaviour of man eating tigers ,
Cheers for the comment. Geoffrey :)
Exceptionally narrated plus very good sound quality.
Thank you and good to see your name in the comments, Hamza!
Thankyou Mr Singh I wait for these uploads religiously I know it must be nice to Have all of India to travel and experience these sounds and scenarios. I have a question, have you ever stalked a tiger or leopard?
Hello friend, thank you for your comment. No, I don't have the means or the inclination to "stalk" these endangered and majestic big cats.
Stalking the ultimate stalkers in the world? No thanks.
Another story I had not heard before! Top job Mr Singh and thank you so much.you Sir.
Great to hear from you, Mr. Black. Hope all's well and thank you for your comment!
Thank you from Italy ... You're simply amazing
Thank you! Great to hear from Italy.
Excellent job of narration, Mr. Selva Lore, thank you very much!
Thanks again. I have been waiting for another of your great stories. It is obvious that this man met CORBETT. His writing style seems influenced by the great master Jim Corbett. We truly appreciate your hard work and excellent narrative.
Thank you and keep the comments coming!
Thanks as always for your excellent work and bringing us these excellent stories . This another writer that is new to me so really enjoyed listening to it 👍 thanks Jim
Thank you again Jim, for keeping up with all the uploads on this channel.
Lots of thanks to you for presenting this. I'm from Paharpani! Thanks you!
Thanks for commenting!
I have hiked all the way up to Paharpani, which happens to be the source of the Gaula river. Its great to hear a story featuring these beautiful physical features of Uttarakhand (Kumaon+Garhwal). Thank you sir, for this beautifully narrated story. Stories like these would otherewise be completely forgotten.
Lovely to hear that. That would be one glorious hike for certain!
At long last. Definitely worth the wait! Thank you !
My pleasure and thank you, yet again for leaving a comment!
Another gem from you. Sir. How much I wish these audio-books were more frequent. Thanks again.
I do the best I can, with the time I have. Thank you Amit ji for comenting again!
Ok this should be interesting! So JE Carrington Turner was a friend of Jim Corbett!
Thank you sir, for another nicely done audio tale. No doubt the author was a friend of Corbett. His influence shows in his writings and in the way he dealt with the situation, just not nearly as gripping or engaging as Mr. Corbett.
Very much so! Thanks for the comment.
Wonderful story brother. God bless you. I have listened to your stories many times over. Your recitation is excellent 👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
Another excellent book, thank you brother for all your hard work, and have a great week...TC!
Thank you, and you too!
Well done Brother.
An excellent story that's very well written.
And a story that's new to me.
Thank you 👍
Yes! Thank you for your consistent support.
You made the wait worth it. Thanks selvalore👍🏻
Thanks Prasanna! Always great to see your name in the comments.
Very enjoyable audio story. The observations made by the author towards the end are of significant consequence for someone of his perspective being in the forest service. Much has changed though since 1955 and As a layperson I strongly suspect that ever rising human interference is the primary cause now of any human-animal conflict anywhere in the world.
Thank you for expressing your thoughts, Anil!
Absolutely enjoyed this one as well! Thank you sir!
Thank you, Ed. Have a great weekend!
YESS i have been waiting
As usual brilliant work
Much appreciated and thanks for listening!
@@selvalore Also you shoulx do an audiobook on the man eating lions of tsavo they killed 200+people(even tho it isnt in india it is still a brilliant.)
@@kod1ac Yes of course. I should get to it in the future.
Listening to your entire library
Great job as always! 🇮🇳🇺🇸🐅
Wow this woman was in a tree when the maneater tried to get her! She screamed and Turner went to help!
as more as i learn about real haunters,, (not those who haunts for play) who frees people from monsters ,, every time it makes me wonder ,, how deeply emotional these men are,, how genuinely kind, compassionate, humble they are,,,
Yet they are all killers,,,
how drop dead dangerously courageous you have to be to track down & stalk a maneater to finish it....
Allah must've shaped their heart...
May allah show marcy on them
Ameen 🖤
Great sentiments! Thank you for the comment.
I'm jamesstuckey, you and I had conversed a bit before. I had to change my email. Just wanted to let you know, I've been a fan since day one and I didn't want you to think that I had left
I do remember. So glad to see you still keep up! Thank you.
Been waiting Thank you Mr Singh
My pleasure and thank you for commenting!
Great!!! Thank you again for another great story.
"Danke schön!" from Germany.
"gerne geschehen!" Lovely to hear from Germany and thank you for commenting!
Excellent narration.Powerful voice...
Thank you for listening, Naval!
Brilliant. Thank you
Thanks Joe! Glad you liked it again.
Another story I did not know and loved, thank you! 💙
Thank you! I appreciate all your feedback.
A new story!
Thanks!
Always happy to see your comment, Mr. Russell. Thank you!
@@selvalore your fans are quite loyal and we greatly appreciate your work.
It's clear from the comments that I am not the only one who jumps for joy when you release a new tale.
@@ropeburnsrussell I'm stoked to hear that. It's this support from people like you and other members of this small community that makes me want to continue doing this. Always grateful for it.
Again Mr Sing brilliantly rendered account from a book congratulations from Australia.
Great to hear from you once again. Thank you!
My favorite voice. Sometimes ringing in my ears, in sleep. Thank you.
It's been a minute, Mr. Husayn! So good to see you still keep up with my uploads. Thank you!
I'm not going anywhere. I dont worry too much when you dont put out new videos. I just listen to the existing ones, one after another in a monthly loop. Your readings dont lose charm, even in repetition.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 😊
You're welcome and thanks for commenting!
A nice and interesting story. Yes, hunger was the main reason for Tigers turning man eaters in Kumaon region. Government/Forest department must introduce sufficient number of deers and pigs in the jungles on a regular basis to prevent Tigers turning man eaters and I think they have already taken steps in this direction.
Thank you.
I agree. A healthy and a thriving tiger population in modern day Uttarakhand, and the whole of india in general, augurs well for the future. Thank you for your comment!
Marvellous as usual. Your peaceful, clear voice takes us far away to the Indian forests!
Thank you for leaving a comment!
Very nice Sir. Top content!
Thank you for the comment!
A good story.
Awesome brother!!!Thank you !!!!
My pleasure and thank you for all your comments!
Hats off to Acharya
Wonderful 🇬🇧
Thank you for the comment!
Sept. 2022
Just yesterday I watched a t.v.show. a series. The one where the hunter/gatherer guy and the ex-soldier go to different spots to attempt to survive in the wilds.
The episode I watched took place in Nepal. The mountains were exactly as described in this story and Mr. Corbett's story.
The modern day farming methods I see in eastern Colorado, vs. The forming methods in the indian/nepalese mountains is simply amazing. The long, narrow terraces would've taken a lot of labor to make, and not really produced a lot. Not compared to modern day.
We here in america are very fortunate.
Thanks for sharing this Richard. You're quite right. The mechanized and large scale farming that is practiced here in North America is efficient and effective. People in the hills farm only for subsistence. Its a lot more work for sure, as you pointed out.
Wow Turner got the widower a job!
What he said about Kumaon being a hotspot for man-eating big cats, remains true to this very day!
Wonderful!!!
Thanks Edwin!
I can’t imagine living in fear of a maneater!
Man i love your audio narration keep up the hard work and never get disappointed by the feedbacks you will eventually make your way to success just let these vids coming
Thank you!
nice. Never heard about J.E Carrington. was he a contemporary of Jim Corbet? Also when was this like 1920s ?
Yes, he was. No dates are given but my best guess is sometime in the 1930s.
It must be horrific to be carried off by a big cat to be devoured! What a horrific death!
No seen, after long time...
There is absolutely no mention of when this happened, except that it occurred sometime between 1912 -1955 😃
Wonder if there is any of these wonderful forrests left these days.
Just the bit that is under official protection as forest reserves or national parks. Most of the rest is all gone.
Pls make long form videos, 2 hr upwards, thankyou
A well-written and a well-narrated tale. This was written in 50's though and the points the author makes towards the end have been further altered against these majestic cats.
Thanks for the comment!
You people that put a Maneaters life over human life are what's wrong with society today
👍
Hey..can u do a series of all the stories of JE carrington of his book Maneater and Memories
Yes absolutely Pankaj!
@@selvalore eagerly waiting for new videos..
This guy is a forest officer and he has to account for his time to his boss unlike freelance hunters like Anderson and Corbett!
I have been searching for this book.Not available.Can you please tell me where it can be brought.I purchased the book In the grip of jungle by George J. Knowles from flipkart.Very thrilling incidents in the same area
To my knowledge, the book is not in print anymore. So you will just need to look for it every now and then. Some old pre-owned copy might just turn up someplace on the internet.
Do the evil one of ulbamaru
Turner says there’s always maneaters in Kumasi!
“ When a man hunts a tiger, he calls it sport but when a tiger hunts a man, he calls it a man-eater “ - George Barnard Shaw
Old George shaw should have went and lived in one of those villages for a couple of weeks with the poor people there and experienced the terror they lived in 24 hours a day mybe even got his rich pervaliged ass eat by a tiger
The great GB shaw and his razor sharp wit!
Old George should have and lived in one of those villages that the Maneater was operating and he would probably had a different outlook about tigers
and when a smart-ass comments on youtube he is called douche.
It's very easy writing about goats, especially you never milked one !
They get pushed into territory where there is no game due to age, or other tigers being superior in stature. This results in them possibly getting injured by inferior weapons which adds to the lack of game forcing deprivation based behaviours. These were 'extra' tigers, that, were it not for human habitation, may have squeaked out a natural living, but were, for all intents and purposes, not intended evolutionarily to continue the species.
Thanks for sharing. Yeah that's an interesting perspective. As a layperson, I have nothing to add to it beyond being hopeful that those in charge are doing what needs to be done to preserve this beautiful species for future generations.
@@selvalore Unfortunately, it may come down to managing the population the same way feral cats are managed...spaying and neutering the population based on available territory and resources. Quite often, if done young enough to the 'beta', a lifelong bond without competition keeps them together, artificially expanding the family unit without expanding the range into territory where there will be conflicts with humans.
So Turner did kill the maneater! Like many maneaters, he had bad teeth which resulted in him becoming a maneater!
I very much enjoy your reading of these stories
Thanks Chester! You'll enjoy this next one. Should be up in an hour or so.
Plz do man eating lions of tsavo
It's on my radar, Preet ji! I'll get to it sometime in the future. I have my hands full for the rest of this year with more Corbett and Anderson stories lined up.
I am from West Bengal and tiger is something that I crave😂
Good news... you have plans for more......aren't we greedy! 😊
Please research When this happened. It could be 1850 or 1950. We have no clue
Probably in the 1940s! Definitely not the 1850s.
Good narration. However please don’t read with so many hush sounds as if telling a ghost story (reduce the “h” sound like t-higher).
Haha, sure will do!
This hunter says a maneater attacks by day not at night!
Oh wow! The maneater killed this man’s wife and kids!
He had to know Jim Colbert and Kenneth Anderson in 1912
Tigers or panthers become maneaters due to lack of prey, bad health or teeth, and old age!
Hindi?
Escuchado 1 v3z
the accent ruins it
Understandable! Not every accent will be amenable to all. Just skip it!
