[[File:T24 20120504.jpg|thumb|Tiger T-24, aka Ustad, in Ranthambore National Park in 2012]]

'''T-24''', also known as '''''Ustad,''''' is a [[tiger]] who lived in [[Ranthambore National Park]], India. He allegedly killed four humans and was put into captivity.

== History ==
T-24, popularly called Ustad, was a dominant male Tiger occupying Zones 1, 2 and 6 of Ranthambhore National Park. He was born in the Lahpur area in late 2006. His brothers were T-23 and T-25. His grandmother was Maachli T-16, a celebrated Tigress.

T-24 rose to dominance in 2010 and took over Zones 1,2 and 6. He patrolled his growing 40 square km territory at night and was known to instill fear in poachers, and forest guards, because of his fearless nature. He was popularly called Ustad which means the Master. Officially weighing 258 kg (570 lbs) on forest department paperwork on May 16, 2015 on an empty stomach, and estimated to be up to 270 kg (596 lbs) by a local biologist, he was one of the largest Tigers Ranthambhore has seen. Tigers are usually lighter in the hot May Summer months because they consume less meat, but during Winter months they can consume 60 lbs at a time causing their body weight to go up accordingly.

T24's mating partner was T-39, popularly called Noor, and together they had three male cubs from two separate litters. All those cubs are now no longer seen in Ranthambhore National Park but have moved north to Keladevi Sanctuary according to the Field Director Y.K. Sahu.

On May 8, 2015, T-24 was controversially identified as the Tiger that killed forest guard Rampal Saini. The forest department stated that this was T-24's fourth human kill and they moved him out of the wild to a zoo in Udaipur in the larger interest of tiger conservation in Ranthambhore.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2015-12-06|title=T-24 in captivity: Tiger 'Ustad' unwell, to stay at Sajjangarh Park|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/t-24-in-captivity-tiger-ustad-unwell-to-stay-at-sajjanpur-park/|access-date=2021-06-04|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}</ref> This move caused massive social uproar. Activists argued that all four killings occurred in the core area which is supposed to be inviolate space for Tigers and that there was no definitive proof that T-24 was the killer Tiger. They took their cause to the streets, online and to the courts.

On May 28, 2015, the Jaipur High Court concluded that the removal of T24 was legal, and pointed out that the Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve officials are the appropriate authority to make Ranthambhore wild tiger translocation decisions. Activists continue to pursue the case legally and otherwise with no success.

In the zoo, T-24 suffered various health issues including [[megacolon]] and is on a special diet and medication. He remains the only Tiger to have graced the cover of India Today magazine and the only Tiger to have commanded the attention of the Delhi High Court, Jaipur High Court and Supreme Court of India.
