The sounds heard at different occasions in The Tiger in the Tunnel:
When Baldeo was in his hut and about to go for work, the stillness of the night was broken by the shrill cry of the cicadas. One could even hear the faint tik tak sounds of the woodpeckers, digging into barks of trees with their beaks. The grunt of a wild boar digging out its delicious roots punctuated the pervasive silence of the jungle.
When he was near the tunnel Baldeo heard the shriek of a deer from afar and a big thud from nearby undergrowth.
After inspecting the tunnel he came and sat near the entrance. He dozed off. He was woken up by the frightening grunt of a jungle cat very close to him. Then there was silence, a few pebbles came cascading down the slope preceded by a thump.
