Save tigers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



We are left with only 1411 tigers.This number is so small that they will be gone soon if we don’t wake up to the crisis.

The World would not be as beautiful as it is without tigers.The tiger is a unique animal which plays a pivotal role in the health and diversity of an ecosystem.It is a top predator and is at the apex of the food chain and keeps the population of wild ungulates in check, thereby maintaining the balance between prey herbivores and the vegetation upon which they feed. Therefore the presence of tigers in the forest is an indicator of the well being of the ecosystem. The extinction of this top predator is an indication that its ecosystem is not sufficiently protected, and neither would it exist for long thereafter.

When we protect one tiger, we protect about a 100 sq. km of area and thus save other species living in its habitat. Therefore, it’s not just about saving a beautiful animal. It is about making sure that we live a little longer as the forests are known to provide ecological services like clean air, water, pollination, temperature regulation etc. This way, our planet can still be home to our children.

Go and tell others that tigers are dying and they need our help
