Today, the 29th July, is actually INTERNATIONAL TIGER DAY! Many a time, visitors – in lapping up zoos (that exhibit tigers) as tourist attractions – fail to realize that they are actually contributing to the exploitation, illegal trade and abuse of tigers!

We have lost 97% of all wild tigers in a little over 100 years! Moreover, only 3,200 live in the wild today! We urge all to do their part as RESPONSIBLE, ETHICAL tourists by NOT supporting such attractions, and by not endorsing tiger tourism at all. Let’s arrest the problem, of the tiger tourism trade, and arrest-worthy poaching and malpractices!
