What a shame that those poor tigers were killed when all they were doing was trying to LIVE! I am glad that others were able to be saved and take comfort in the fact there are many wildlife protectors out there who face down angry mobs to protect our large feline cousins. <BR/><BR/>I am very glad there is good news to counteract the bad. purrrrrs<BR/><BR/>We are so glad to hear from you and are happy you are doing well.Name: Mr. Hendrixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07363458645411103051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036154454707124673.post-91191929894545186792009-04-02T04:07:00.000-07:002009-04-02T04:07:00.000-07:00Oh Omer, I am overjoyed to finally hear from you dearest friend.

It's good to see you again. I hope things have been going well for you.<BR/><BR/>Absolutely fascinating post. And heart-wrenching about the tiger who turned out to be a tigress. I got tears in my eyes reading. Thank you for keeping us up-to-date on news re: the big cats. They are such magnificent creatures, and the more attention, care, and concern given them, the better that they may survive and live proud and free.<BR/><BR/>The Ballicai send lots and lots of purrs!

This post has taken me all evening to read (following all the links too) in between eating, snoozing and watching some TV, so I can well understand how you didn't have time during your studies because the research alone must take hours! I don't consider a second wasted though, because it's all so interesting!<BR/><BR/>I'm devastated at the fate of the Indian travelling tiger. I tried to find out about him (now known to be her) during your absence but I must have been Googling the wrong keywords... *Sigh*. The story of Bella the lioness's rescue was heartwarming though!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting. I'm okay though have turned upside-down into a non-blood-drinking vampire - up all night and asleep all day, doh! Joke: If your feet smell and your nose runs you're built upside-down. Harharhar, duhr! (You can "thank" Pinky for that one!) :) xxxBlack Cathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16794309092448698763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036154454707124673.post-65672865986398395112009-04-01T19:18:00.000-07:002009-04-01T19:18:00.000-07:00I'm really sorry to hear that the tiger we had been reading about for so long was eventually shot and killed. I can understand why people were angry at it, but i wish there was more sympathy to the fact that it was driven into attacking humans by the absence of sufficient land and mates...it's really sad.PurrPrintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17892844768633203890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036154454707124673.post-84124635109282934352009-04-01T13:50:00.000-07:002009-04-01T13:50:00.000-07:00Good to hear from you again Omer :)<BR/> The news is happy and sad. Tigers are on the losing end when they interact with man. We really need to give them space,instead of taking away their habitat.<BR/>It is good,however, that the Lynx has cubs and more may be born :) It is good that there are bits og good news. WE hope there is lots more :)<BR/><BR/>WE hope you are settled and doing well in your studies. Your commitment and drive are your strengths and you will do well!!

Reading both the sadder news and better news made me think about the Snow Leopard Trust's report on the shooting of Long Tail in Mongolia by a herder. My kids and I were devastated when we read the bad news. Long Tail was the subject of a documentary some time back. Now he is gone. One less valuable male for the breeding population much like the female Bengal tiger now lost to us all.<BR/><BR/>Purrs and hugs from me and the kitties here on the farm<BR/>LizMad Bush Farm Crewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05100812038496671783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036154454707124673.post-74694507327155933132009-04-01T10:14:00.000-07:002009-04-01T10:14:00.000-07:00Those angry mobs kind of scared me a bit. Yikes. I can see their anger over the death of the villager, but it seems like they should have let the officials handle the situation.<BR/><BR/>Have a terrific day.
