Don't let this be the last.


60 years ago,
There were
3000
Today,
barely
500


Our nation's symbol of
Power
and
Strength.


I have been browsing through the web to research material for my Tiger Blogfest entry and am horrified by what I found. I was looking for information on the dwindling population of our Malayan Tiger and found that no amount of facts, stats and information will ever be able to send a stronger message than a few horrifying photographs.
I will not post these pictures here.
They are too heartbreaking.
Here's a link to the images I've found.
Or you could just Google 'Tiger poaching' or 'Tiger parts'
These images are graphic.
Do not view if you have a weak heart.

Visiting you on Earth day as our tiger in the wild gets fewer by those inconsiderate people, can't call the 'animals'.

I've got a few more to go, my fingers are getting numb, but Tiger Marathon In Cyberspace is worth it.
