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.
