When and Where to Photograph Gaur

The largest wild cattle — impressive herds in the Western Ghats and central India. Gaur photography in Indian reserves.

Plan field days around Jan–Dec: light is often strongest at dawn and dusk, when many mammals and birds are most active. Work with a naturalist who knows local movement patterns — they will position you ethically while improving your odds of a encounter in Bandipur National Park.
