Guest guest Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 From http://www.wildaid.org/index.asp?CID=5 & PID=465 " Shooting Tigers " Why are wild tigers in danger of becoming extinct? Scott Pelley travels to the Kanha Reserve in India to find out. This Sunday, Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. ET/PT. WildAid is on the frontline protecting tigers around the world. Our team of dedicated professionals has shown how to make real progress in protecting these magnificent animals, where they belong in the wild. WildAid staff were among the first to create innovative strategies that are succesfully protecting Siberian Tigers. Once, there were 100,000 tigers in Asia. Now there are fewer than 5,000. Some experts believe at least one tiger is poached every day. Tigers are being hunted into extinction, because of consumer demand for tiger bone and skins. WildAid believes this can and must be stopped. Video on http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/60minutes/main3415.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
