Eye of the Tiger!!!


And god created a cat...So that man might have the pleasure of caressing the Tiger. Alas...Man has been killing this beautiful animal. And for what??? For sport, skins and body parts. Due to this the tigers are facing major population losses and if it continues we are not very far off from that day of the extinction of our very own Royal Bengal Tiger.



Its very obvious that this priceless animal is poached to earn small money (no price is big for a Tiger) from its body parts. 1930 - 1975, thanks to the royal sport...huh...saw extinction of Caspian, Bali and Java Tigers. Its so sad to know that at the turn of century there were almost 40,000 tigers in India but not even 10% of of that figure now remain in our jungles.



It is very important for us to save tiger as it symbolizes well being of the ecosystem. In a way if you save tigers, you also save our eco system which is very crucial for man's own survival. Save the Tiger!!!
