CBI arrests two of inter-state wildlife poaching gang
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.

CBI arrests poachers, will they be convicted ?
A PTI report cites the arrest of two poachers by the CBI wanted in cases related to killing of Panthers and Tigers in Sariska. Apparently the duo has been evading arrest since 2005 and were caught in Punjab with the help of local police. With most poaching related arrests based on half baked cases it is no wonder these criminals get bail in no time and and are back to their hunting ways in double quick time. If the recent cases of INdia's most dreaded poacher Sansar Chand being let off on bail is any indicator, it is unlikely any of these arrests will help slide the destruction of wildlife in INdia.
