Missing cubs found |
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.

Missing cubs of dead Bandhavgarh tigeress found., future uncertain
Central Chronicle reports the forest rangers having located 2 of the 3 cubs who had wandered off after their mother died of poisoning couple of days back in the Bandhavgarh national park. The cubs are too small to survive on their own in the jungle so most likely they will end up cooling their heels in a cage rest of their lives. Unfortunate in a country which likes to uphold freedom as its shining beacon.
Surprise Surprise - Mah Zoo Minster cleared of violating law
Making a mockery of justice, the Zoo authorities in Nagpur appointed to investigate the minister entering a tiger cage and harrassing the cub has cleared the law maker of any violation. The zoo controller apparently means that rules are made only for common citizens and politicians and their ilk are above law. Although central MOEF Jairam ramesh has taken serious note of the incident it seems highly likely that this incident willsoon die its natural death. Afterall politicians in India get away with much worse than petting a tiger cub.
