Endangered Animals: Tigers

There are a handful of individuals of the 3 basic differing environments that I believe are the supreme adaptive predators. The Tiger is my choice on land, the Peregrine Falcon in the Air (my favorite haunt) and the Dolphins and Killer Whales are my picks for the sea. However it’s the ‘Elephant in the room’ that poses the greatest threat not just the aforementioned stunning creatures, but ironically that ‘Elephant’ it self.

Three of the Nine Tiger sub-species have been hunted to extinction in the last century

This makes me both sad and angry, how can man destroy these wonderful animals. To all those poachers and hunters who still continue to kill, I hope that you end up being eaten by the animals you pursue.
