‘Save our Tigers’

This is a post inspired by the new campaign launched by Aircel (In partnership with WWF India) to ‘Save our Tigers’.

Save our Tigers campaign by Aircel

Save our Tigers campaign by Aircel

It’s so sad to learn that the estimated number of Tigers currently in India count to just 1411. At the start of this century, the entire world has around 1 lakh Tigers with India alone having 40000 Tigers in the wild. Increase in population meant that people would fight for place to live against the wild and hence, the decrease in the number. Keeping aside the fact that hunting wild animals used to be a sport for the ‘Maharajas’.

If we at least don’t ACT now, our future generation may well put Tigers besides Dinosaurs’ and learn about them as extinguished animals.

What can you do?

There are various credible organizations working towards the conservations of Tigers in India. You can support them by donating the amount of your choice. Head over here to make a donation.

If you have a blog similar to this, you can write about the urgent importance that is required in this regard. If you have a social networking profile, update your statuses’ (or the likes..) to show your concern (every bit of word helps spread the message).

If you see or know any one in your village hurting Tigers, be it for any reason, educate them and if possible bring them to the law.

And finally, if your want to show your concern on tigers virtually, head over here to make a mark.

  15. wildlife tigers are the beauty of nature we have to save them by getting existed as they are the part of our earths beauty. we live on their land and at their homes as they allow us to leave us to live on their land we should not kill them but should save their lives as they are only few left . if we kill someone ,someone will kill us . if we save someones life , someone will save our life , so stop killing wildlife and start saving wildlife

  16. Each and every creature is important in the world as we so are the TIGERS.It’s the pride of our country and is now being killed.if the tigers could not speak we should understand them ,if they are not hurting us then why should we?

  17. Tigers are very important creatures on this earth. Their role in the environment is very important. Unfortunately, tigers are now facing the problem of extinction. We need to solve this problem otherwise it is not only dangerous for the earth but also for us.

  24. I would like to congratulate Aircel for running campaign to save tigers- our natural heritage. Aircel has been raising the Question of Right to life of tigers. They are becoming rare animal. So we have to come together to provide them a good residence.

  25. It is a nice organisation to save our tigers.Players like MS DHONI have joined in this.THANKS A LOT for AIRCEL

  27. joyadithya chakraborty

    its my humble request to every one that please save our tigers because if we being the most intelligent creature dont save them there is no one to help them. so lets us put hand in hand together to save our tigers. they our pride if we dont save them there is no one to think about them. once we lose them we cant create them because they are not machine al we can do is that we can just protect them. so dont wait for anything please dont be late otherwise we cant repent our mistakes. do it now or u cant do it ever. wake its already to late so dont wait.

  28. Tiger is our national animal…But it’s the right time to save our national animal..SO WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING FOR SAVE OUR PRIDE..

    I congratulate Aircel for the “save the tiger” campaign,it is the need of the hour.Even the celebrities like MS Dhoni etc coming up on various TV channels & talking about the tiger is realy amazing…but the real story has a twist…I am from dist Sindhudurg,the southern most dist of konkan region along the west coast adjoining to Goa,here we have highly biodiversed jungles…enriched flora & fauna,extra ordinary nature.Since last few weeks a tigress & its cub have been spotted by many villagers in many villages in tehesil Sawantwadi & Dodamarg in my district,even in three villages the cattles have fallen prey to this tiger which is a stripped tiger (Panthera Tigris) but our ditrict forest department refuses to recognise it & put it officially on paper.They keep saying that it is leopard & not tiger,as if it is officially recognised as tiger,the entire zone becomes “Tiger reserve “forest,their responsibility increases multifold.
    More over our maharashtra state govt wants to do iron ore mining in this naturally enriched region.A lot of mining giants from Goa ,after the rampent mining in eastern part of Goa they want to do mining in this lovely Sindhudurg.
    Ideally to preserve the existence of tiger in this region the govt should declare this region as eco sensitive area so that no red category industries like mining can ever come here & this special kind of nature is spared.
    Then & only then the numbers of tigers in India may grow from 1411 to 14111 in the next decades to come.Otherwise the monster of mining would eat up our national animal.

  35. abhishek sharma

    they r our national animal, and proud of INDIA, so please dont kill the tigers, verna mai tiger hunters ko kaat daalunga. JAI HIND.

  36. ROHIT SEN SHARMA

    PLEASE SAVE OUR TIGERS AS IT IS OUR NATIONAL ANIMAL .THERE ARE ONLY 1411 TIGERS LEFT SO PLEASE JOIN HANDS AND SAVE OUR NATIONAL ANIMAL

  37. Let’s hope this is not the end.Save tiger?It’s fine.But we shouldn’t forget about other endangered species,especially vultures. Why not club it together. Save tiger and breed vulture.

  38. How many tigers were there in the year 2000 ? How many were they in 1980.Kindly highlight this in the ads.And what about peacocks,they are also in danger of getting instinct

  39. Tigers are our national haritage-they ARE connected to india as much as we are.Without them india’s pride will get lost.Besides, they are animmals,they have the right to lead a life,every animal does.They are equqlly important in our life as are the trees.But it is we humans who are intent to go our own way without bothering to think twice about the perishing lives that have equal amount of right to live a peaceful life as much as we do given the fact that they, like us are God’s creation.But we dont give any importace to animals,trees and other aspects of nature as we dont consider them to have any standard in the society.Humans are the most cruel dwellers on this earth- nobody can deny the fact,today tigers are decreasing,tomorrow some other animal will,one day every animal on this earth will get extinct-as a result of our selfishness.We are taught to repair what we have damaged,so its time to act and not sit back with our hands folded and wetch them all die day by day.
    I request you all, plzzzz,come forward and ACT.Every little bit helps.

SAVE TIGERS AND BE AN INDIAN TIGER

  47. ‘Save our tiger’ is not an advertisment of aircel its a reality n dont think just do it save our national pride bcoz tiger is gold crown of india and without this crown india will look like slave country so save tigers n take it seriously…..plz do it

    • forest officers are responsible for the condition of tigers in india . they are induge in the act of poaching a tiger with civilians .they are quite inadequate to secure a jungle from tiger skin mafia

  48. what has project tiger done.
    What has been the modus operandi..
    Course of action and on what parameters the success is being measured.
    The dwindling count of tigers from 20,000 speaks of the acclaimed success of project tiger, open your eyes..had projeect tiger been successful the number of tigers would have grown not lessened.
    Of astonishment yes a quickie to fame,lauded for social reposibility.
    The problem is of greed, not deforestation.

  49. Are we talking about virtual tigers, have saved all the photographs available.
    Tweet, facebook and what not. We can save tigers sitting in our sitting rooms.
    Charity to save the tigers, is it the bidding amount offered to the poachers.
    the whole propaganda is comical, cmmon man we have better things to laugh on, not the tiger,
    one of the most majestic creatures.
    human race is getting fatter and at the same time loosing its grey cells to fat,
    first they say 1100 tigers left, and save tigers, wake up, what shit, are we killing the tigers,
    but for sure the poachers are, and they attentively read these blogs, watch tv and read newspaper and tweet on tiger
    conservation and will stop killing the tigers.
    Who the hell cares about the tigers, addressing an issue is a quickie to fame and for already famous a pr gesture,
    to potray social responsibility,
    leave the tigers alone in their plight and dont try to encash on an endangered species. I am ashamed.
    Instead of good, its doing harm, the poachers come to know just 1140 left, oh, get ready for the kill man.
    They thank the TV and other media for the information and a new killing spree begins.
    On my way to the Zoo to have the last glimpse of the king.

    • Yes, You are absolutely right.. Instead saying save tigers.. let us loudly say………… SAVE THE TIGERS, SLAUGHTER THE POACHERS….**

  50. We humans should save our tigers.Please everyone take interest and save the tigers which are left. Every small effort willmake a big difference in tigers life.

  51. i think animals and plants are very important for the survival of not only humans but for the existence of life on this lovely planet. god has created such huge and wonderful nature with certain rule and regulations we all must follow them. we must not disturb the equilibrium in nature neither must allow any one else.

    tiger is really very important part of our ecosystem after the launch of project tiger we have made great progress in this approach but we must again start some new programs to stop poaching and must create awareness among the common mass that forest are very essential for tiger’s survival so protect forest.
    take a stand against the forest cutting and also against those people who are destroying our forest .

    plzzzzzzzzzzz
    i request every on to contribute your bit and we can really be astonished by seeing the result of our contribution.
    hope for better tommorrow………….

  65. Animals are the integral part of Mother Nature, Tigers are in this condition all b’cause of we human beings only so we all had to start true efforts to save them all…to maintain the balance in Nature & to see these incredible ones thought out in future.

  66. nihar a. gadhavi.

    Being an indian it is the most painful thing to hear that our national animal is in danger. Tiger is the most beautiful animal on the earth. it is our national animal animal and we are the only responsible for current situation. i am ready for whatever i have to do. if you guys need me as a volunteer, just mail me straight away. this is the time to wake up.

  67. ye commemt un logon ke liye hai jo ghar se tigers ka shikar karne ke liye nikalte hai. zara socho ke cubs apni maa ka intazaar karte hai, lekin jab unka shikar ho jata hai bechaare cubs akele darte rahte hai. jo log shikar karte hai unke bhi to bacche hai, unke bacche bhi ta ghar par raah dekhte hai. agar woh bhi kabhi wapas na lauten toh, un par kya bitegi

  68. I want always India stay on the no 1 position .whether any thing field because india is great country .Animals are most important part of nature so its very important to save them.I faiver natural beauty of nature.i will accept me lucky if i can do about the save tiger project .and i want say there all india people should be done about it it,s a question indian reputation.

    • I consider tigers to be the most regal and elegant creatures in our planet.Losing the would be a slur for us as a nation and as an established community in the world.

  69. I request all indian it ios our resposibility to save the Tigers as we feel proud and we are responsible 4 there decline.I am ready to work as volunteer so if anyone want mail me.

  70. I am deeply disturbed by the plight of not just the tigers, but also of our mother earth !! we humans are not understanding the fact that if nature perishes, we perish too !!!

    • I totally agree with u if we don’t start to make a small amount of effort in saving this planet as well, am sure we r all gone end up like the movie 2012 the only difference will be it will happen 50 or 60 yrs latter. All we humans think of is reproducing ourselves and nothing else – the total population of human beings in the world is 6,800,700,000 as of today and still growing. I’m 100% sure that animals in this world are much lesser than this figure. So Save the Wild life and Our Forests they have the right to live on this planet as much as we do.

  71. Animals are most important part of nature so its very important to save them.and Tigers are proud of India form ancient time now there is need to save them.i pray u all 2 help in saving Tiger specially for youth…..Save Tiger..Save India..Save World and Humanity…….

    • Its so affection to say that SAVE OUR TIGERS FROM OBJECTION AND VIOLENCE……………….WE LOVE YOU AIRCEL SAVE YOUR TIGER AND TOGETHER JOIN THIS GROUP…….WE LOVE YOU ALLL………………And say aal izz well..

  72. i feel that we need to create an awareness program on “save your tiger” and start educating about the same and recently i have seen an incident in TV which was happend in south east of india were tiger was molested by villagers so cruelly they have betan tiger with metal rods and killed.,for a while i just felt shame for being a human being.

  73. I would like to know more about how to save your tiger project, as i’m looking for contribute and volunteer on this cause.., therefore, if possible please send me more information on my email because i’m bit confused how we can save our tigers as i understand this is something related to survival of tigers in forest how we as human can save our tigers i hope it make sense to you…please feel free to send information on the same.

    Maddy.

  74. i m saying dis wid pain whether v like it or not v have 2save our tigers the pride of india being a part of india’s youth i plead you all

  75. Animals r most imp part of our life, as well as trees. so we need to protect then b4 every bad situation comes to our ways
