Let the sleeping tiger lie
Originally uploaded by Pandiyan.
This tiger is fortunate and he is safe within his enclosure. But it is a pity really. This magnificent creature, actually the national animal of India, is in such a precarious state in many Indian forests. Utterly defenceless against poaching and encroachment. Government machinery, except for a few informed officials, is blissfully indifferent and badly equipped to face the challenge.
After two decades of well publicised "Project Tiger' campaign, we have not many tigers more than what we had then.
