Minister MOEF wants tigers in Gujarat
A report in Indian Express today cites a letter sent by Jairam Ramesh to Gujrat forest minister proposing relocating tigers into the state. Tigers used to raom in the state as recently as 10 years back the repopulating the state will expand the tiger conservation efforts significantly by brining in new areas under protection. Apart from Gujarat the minister should look at other such areas/states which have forest cover to be able to hold sustainable tiger population. Spreading the animal far and wide and involving local communities in protection will go a long way in keeping our national pride from extinction.
