This blog is a humble contribution towards increasing awareness about problems being faced wrt Tiger Conservation in India. With the Tiger fast disappearing from the radar and most of us looking the other way the day is not far when the eco system that supports and nourishes us collapses. Citizen voice is an important tool that can prevent the disaster from happening and this is an attempt at channelising the voice of concerned nature lovers.

Two more poachers arrested - The killing continues
As per a TOI report, two men with the skin of a young tiger were caught by the TN state wildlife officials. Though cases of poachers/traders being netted are coming to light often there seems to be little concerted effort to break the back of poaching mafia across the country. As this blog has been saying the central ministry needs to set up crime investigation and prosectution for wildlife cases on the lines of CBI. A nodal body which works closely with states and looks at a pan india picture. With wildlife crime becoming an inter state phenomenon only a central body with mandate to operate across state borders can put a lid on the continuing killing of wild animals.
