WHY SHOUD WE SAVE TIGER

Why should a species that is always blood-thirsty be conserved? Why should huge government and international funds go in for the safety of the tiger when so many human lives are living in poverty and misery. The answer to the question is not as simple as it seems. For sure, the lives of fellow human beings are precious, but the survival of the tiger is no less important.Unfortunately we, the human beings do not live in isolation. Unfortunately we co-exist in an intense network of species and sub-species. The human beings evolved as a result of evolutionary process that started millions of years ago. From a small, ‘semi-living’, unicellular organism millions of years ago we evolved into what we are today. No doubt we are the most developed and powerful of all the species, but unfortunately even today we are dependent on other species for our daily requirements. Unfortunately all the species, animals or plants, are similarly dependent on each other for their survival.We are all small but important parts of the larger system that keeps us feeding and multiplying. Indian Tiger is also a small but important part of this system. If not for the tiger, it is for our own selfishness that we have to keep a important part of the system alive. For example…the tiger feeds on the herbivorous animals, thereby help keeping their population under control and indirectly saving the jungle from overgrazing. It also feeds on the sick, old and injured animals, thereby helping to keep its prey species healthy. There are hundreds of obvious and not so obvious ways in which the tiger is helps the larger system work.However powerful and intelligent we human beings may be, we cannot ‘create’ life. We can’t even forcefully order a species to multiply. The two sub-groups of Indian Bengal tigers are already extinct. Once the last pair of tigers on the planet die, how much ever we want, desire or try, we will never be able to ‘create’ another tiger.Today this majestic specimen of life- the great Indian Tiger, evolved after millions of years is in danger…just because of the inhuman behaviour of human beings. Tiger is the icon of a heathy and prospering jungle. Biologists believe that if in a jungle tigers are surviving and multiplying, then every thing else in the forest is well. The tiger’s presence itself is a symbol of growth and well being.....
