Wildlife experts believe that the tigress Sultana may have a natural tendency to chase safari vehicles, as it has never attacked a human till date. Biologist Dharmendra Khandal said, "The Territory of Tigress Sultana is in Zone 1 of Ranthambore National Park. The movement of the tigress is recorded near human settlements including Ranthambore Fort, Ganesh Temple Road and Jhumar Baori area, but this tigress has never attacked a human.
