Jung captured most of the images in the Kabini Forest also called Rajiv Gandhi Tiger Reserve situated in Karnataka. The forest has only st has only one black panther.
He further explains that “since 2015… photographers have been fortunate enough to see him and take pictures. We are, however, the first to make a dedicated movie on him.”
