CONFIRMED TIGER DEATHS INSIDE KANHA TR
There's more bad news from Kanha Tiger Reserve. Tragically, yet another tiger was found dead in Kisli Range, yesterday morning. It was a beautiful adult male, in his prime. The animal was lying in a pool of water with head injuries that had apparently been inflicted by another tiger. A post mortem was carried out and samples have been sent for forensic analysis.
This brings the total number of tigers that are confirmed to have died inside Kanha Tiger Reserve in the past three months to six, five of them from "in-fighting". Apart from this, a tiger skin was seized in the town of Balaghat, near Kanha, on 11 November 2008. There are also four other unsubstantiated tiger deaths - two cubs and a male tiger on 20 January (in Kisli Range), and an adult tigress on 21 January (in Mukki Range):

some Tigers though they where at a distance.

Sariska - Tiger Relocation
Two tigers, a male and female where relocated there
from
Ranthambhore, end of June and the first week in
July 08. They are both doing well and there will
be more relocated over the next year. |
Sadly, tigers are killed for their skins and also
for their body parts.
There is the belief in traditional chinese medicines that body parts from the tiger can be used as an ingredient to cure certain ailments.
None of this has been proven.
We need to stop the death of this magnificent creature NOW, as it is the guardian of the forest, along with those who depend on the forest for their lives.
We do not need to eat tiger penis soup, drink tiger bone wine, or wear tiger skins to show we are wealthy.
A tiger a day is being killed in the wild.
