Yet the chinese consumers want to make it extinct, with help from poachers of the sub continent. Ban the use of tiger products all over the world. Where is the bloody UN and banki moon when the world needs them? Having a party with the chinese I dare say, and being fed well, may be even the pocketts stuffed from ill gotten gains!

Legendary, strong, dangeroux, beautiful, magnificent, the tiger is a true awesome predator, the most dangerous and strongest of all carnivores in the world, and at the same time, it's the symbol of beauty and greatness of nature in India

we should try to protect them... lets boycott going to zoos and lets discourage wild animal hunting for sports... i dont want that my kids and their kids can only see bengal tigers in books and videos the moment they reach extinction.
