In Mudumalai Tiger Reserve, southern India, the adult male:female ratio has been reported as 25:100, 39:100, and 33:100 in different studies.
“In southern India, the adult male:female ratio has been reported as being 25:100 (Ashokkumar et al. 2010), 39:100 (Ramesh et al. 2012), and 33:100 (Ahrestani et al. 2011) in Mudumalai Tiger Reserve”
From Bos frontalis and Bos gaurus (Artiodactyla: Bovidae) (2018) · cites this paper as Ramesh et al. 2012
In Mudumalai, 48% of males observed in 2008-2009 and 52% of all B. gaurus observed in 1976-1978 were solitary adult males.
“in other studies from Mudumalai, 48% of males observed in 2008-2009 (Ramesh et al. 2012) and 52% of all B. gaurus observed in 1976-1978 were solitary adult males (Johnsingh 1983).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
