Save our Tigers

Recently I happened to watch a commercial which wasn’t meant for commercial purpose but for our tigers which are under constant danger of being diminished from mother earth. Their existence is under great threat. By whom? Of course, by us, the humans, who are killing tigers for what? nails, skin and body parts to make medicines to increase human potential for sex. We know it’s shameful but still hunting is going on and has not reached to such a danger level that only 1411 tigers are left.

1411 is average estimate of India’s wild tigers, as per the monitoring exercise by Wildlife Institute of India in association with NTCA, Government of India in 2008.

I was talking about the commercial that I watched. Watch it below and feel the touch. A cute cub of tiger is waiting for her mother to return from hunting as it is hungry and thirsty. But little fact it knows that her mother might not even return! Why? Because, there are chances that she would be killed by humans. What happens to the cub then? The imagination itself is heart breaking.

It surprised me when I came to know that there were total of 40,000 tigers in the last century. Tigers were considered as a part of our heritage. And now only 1411 left. The difference of 38589 tigers shows the merciless killing of this beautiful animal.Indian Government has been spending billions of rupees after the border protection.

Time has come now that, we take care of our own animals too. Security staff is the first and foremost requirement to save our tigers. Their strength should be increased as well they should be well equipped to fight back against the killer demons.

Protection should be given the high priority. The killers should fear from the guards that if they are caught, they can be the target of bullets. Strict laws should be executed immediately against any such caught killers.

Aircel has partnered with WWF-India to help “Save Our Tigers.” We the people can support this mission through spreading the awareness about it, but the prime requirement is ‘ACTIONS’ to be taken in the jungle for the Government making sure, not even a single tiger is killed from the left 1411. Every single tiger now matters. Celebrities like Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Bhaichung Bhutia are supporting this mission.

Let us join hands and spread the awareness about “Save our Tigers” mission and put our efforts to stop the killing.

    Tiger one of the most magnificent animals in the world, is also one of the most endagered species. A cat of strength, beauty and majesty, the tiger is the master of all and subject to none- except humans. Stop killing tigers for their skin n other parts. The more we are aware of the status of the tiger, the more it helps in saving it. Help to take action and create an awareness among the people with regard to extinction of tigers.

    Tiger dwindling,the major threat is due to the occupation of the forest cover by industrialists for consumer needs.If this continues over the next years,we would only be able to see tigers in pictures & not in real.so we the youth have to come forward & take steps by planting trees so that our national animal can live freely..
    Oh our national animal!
    Oh our king of forest!!
    you are the heritage of the country!!!
    we the youth would take steps to protect you & never be out of the sight.!!!

    Tigers are on the threshold of extinction.according to WWF tigers are among the ten most endagered apecies in the world.over the last century more than 95% of the tiger population has been wiped out.if this is the case then it wouldnt take much time for extinction of tigers.
    hence killing of tigers must be completely stopped especially for their skin. as citizens of india, it is the duty of every individual to cooperate and extend their support towards saving tigers.

    Tigers are an integral part of the ecosystem, and a major link in the food chain. Tigers have been bestowed magical and supernatural properties by many societies, and have also been revered as gods. All living creatures of mother earth depend on one another for survival. We as human beings are brothers and sisters to every living being, from the plants to the animals to each other.

    Crimes like these – the killing of tigers – must be stopped – PERIOD

    This is terrific news that the number of tigers in our whole world which consists of more than a crore people. i can’t even imagine that people can be so selfish tht for looking stylish they kill this national animal. We all should ban poaching and who ever caught killing these animals should be punished as when they will be animals and they will be killed then they will know how it fells like when someone takes away your life for their own stupid styling needs. And i would like to tell these poachers that if they have seen it , it doesn’t mean that everyone has seen it. Please leave atleast these one’s that are left so that the coming generations can also see them as it is everybody’s right to see them but seeing and them killing them is not allowed…..

    The poachers this letter is for you all. If you all were an Indian so you would kill another country’s national animal wont you then the people of that country would be sad. And today you are of that country and we are getting sad. What ever we not let our national animal die. Just 1411 tigers left in India. I Ishu will give away her lives but not let her national animal die. JAI HIND.

    I hope that they will do something about that. Tigers are great animals, especially Siberian tigers, which are also the largest species of cats in world.It would be a shamed to disappear.

    “Recently I happened to watch a commercial which wasn’t meant for commercial purpose..” , I disagree with this, Aircel is publishing its brand name under the theme of save tigers.I dont think they really care about the tigers ! rather then making money.

    I do agree that we have to put our hands to save the tigers but at the same time I have few questions.

    If Aircel is really concerned about animals ….
    Where did all the sparrows gone? Mobile Phones are Vanishing Bees !
    Being a mobile operator company Aircel is also directly responsible for destroying the birds and bees.
    What action did Aircel has taken to save the birds & bees ?

    They are here to make money & promote their brand name , they are doing that.
