Saving tigers is not a luxury, no, not even for a populated country like India. We need to understand that the loss of a tiger is not just the loss of a tiger. It is the unfurling of yet another strand of the eco-system on which we depend, on which a large majority of our billions depend. It is about water, the basis of our life…no less than 600 rivers and streams flow out of the tiger’s forests in India. The ancients understood it—in many cultures tiger is revered as the Water God.
It is not about us saving the tiger, it is about the tiger saving us..
hope its not too late b4 we all ppl in india (even entire world) realize this.
