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.
I read a case with sankhala where siedesticker or whatever his name is, a american scientist, who tranquilized a tiger and relocated him, and the tiger was killed by another tiger. It is said this marked the beginning in the scientific community as evidence the tiger is a territorial animal. Oh, but of course, sankhala denied to. Calling the scientist incompetent for overdosing and killing the tiger, then the story changes into the tiger being killed by a wild boar. Complete denial of the obvious. He even wanted to get the scientist, he had to run to the american embassy. Sankhala is a corrupt politicion it seems, a lot of power in india too where eveybody listens to him. He isnt even a biologist at all. Ill find the full story, this is just what i recall.
Im not sure why he is saying such things against the tiger like this. Why is he so desperate to prove the tiger is not territorial? Is it to make conservation easier?
