Recently i saw an ad on TV stating that number of tigers have gone up from 1411 to 1600. well, 14 of these are cute little cubs of bannerghatta, bangalore. and, i also got the answer for the question : are these really tigers ?

There is safari ride in bannerghatta and this gentleman was enjoying his lazy saturday afternoon. ( i could have also done the same, but had preferred not to.)
Our bus was, say, just a couple of meters of away from this gentleman. And, we, the people, inside the bus, were screaming, creating ruckus. To this gentleman, we were the juglees and we were caged in that bus. It never lost its cool. Behaved like a true gentleman and tolerated us.
But, is a tiger supposed to be this gentle ? Tigers in bannerghatta are not allowed to hunt, they are well fed. will they survive the harsh jungle ?
Tigers are supposed to be tigers and not gentleman. We need 1600 tigers and not gentlemen who are well fed and kept in zoo, safari as show pieces.

I completely agree. Especially when I see people posing with Tigers in Thailand. When I came across this magnificent animal for the first time in Kanha, I was happy I was riding on an elephant and had fear in me. After 27 years again at Tadoba my hands were trembling with excitement and fear. Forests will be destroyed if the fear if the Tigers and elephant will disappear from our hearts
