There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

  South China Tiger is extinct in the wild ?
Posted by: sanjay - 05-26-2015, 09:42 PM - Forum: Questions - Replies (12)
Somewhere I read, an animal that hasn't been seen in over 50 years will be considered as extinct. South China Tiger which, although can be found in zoos, hasn't been seen in the wild for over 25 years. Therefore it is suspected that the South China Tiger could be extinct in the wild.
What you guys says ? Is it really South china tigers are gone from the wild?
I would love to read your thoughts over this topic.

  Male tiger ustaad T-24 killed forest gaurd in Ranthambore
Posted by: Pckts - 05-18-2015, 10:51 PM - Forum: Debate and Discussion about Wild Animals - Replies (58)
Save the Tiger Yesterday ·     In an act which tiger experts termed as 'capital punishment without a fair trial', the Rajasthan forest authorities on Saturday sent the Ranthambore tiger T-24 to Sajjangarh Biological Park in the outskirts of Udaipur, around 400 km away from his territory.

The move prompted a protest rally by tiger lovers and experts, who called it a black day in the history of wildlife, in Jaipur on Saturday evening.

The move is a U-turn from stand maintained by the government till Friday, when Minister of State for Forests Raj Kumar Rinwa said T-24 would not be shifted to a zoo or park till a committee of experts submitted a report on the matter. Rinwa had told that the committee would be set up after Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, who was in New Delhi, returned to the state.

However, Rinwa was not taken into confidence before shifting T-24, also known as Ustaad. The minister did not take telephone calls on Saturday.

Ustaad was shifted to Sajjangarh by road after being tranquilised. Ranthambore Tiger Reserve's field director Y.K. Sahu told the media that the wild cat was shifted on the basis of a report suggesting the same.

However, tiger expert Dhirendra Godha called the report as "bogus" as it was prepared by reserve's officers under pressure from the tourism lobby.

Rajasthan's former principal chief conservator of forests R.N. Mehrotra alleged that Ustaad would be kept in a cage in Sajjangarh without following the standard operating procedure as suggested by the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA).

"The park was made out of a zoo during my tenure," Mehrotra recalled. According to the NTCA, a big cat could be shifted to a zoo only after a detailed inquiry by a committee of well-known experts, as Rinwa had suggested. "No such detailed inquiry was conducted," Mehrotra asserted.

T-24's fate was uncertain after it killed forest guard Rampal Saini on May 8.

  How come there are no recent Tiger Predation on adult rhino accounts recently?
Posted by: faess - 05-16-2015, 09:23 AM - Forum: Debate and Discussion about Wild Animals - Replies (4)
After that incident in 2010-2011 event of a Tiger killing an adult female rhino, there has been no other recent account of a Tiger killing an adult rhino. And so concludes this question, How can a Tiger kill a female rhino? Every tiger killing adult rhino  incident never involves a description on how A tiger predates on a big rhino
