I have NO proof of it so I didn't use it as reason. But I believe one of the people who reported it was @Gaute, If I am wrong, I will quickly remove it and apologize for misquoting.

 

As you mentioned me here already, I going to clarify the issue before any confusion could rise.  the road to hell is paved with good intentions". Personally, I don't see the point to breed hybrid tigers, when he could breed pure specimens like the "Save the China's Tigers" project; he is expending money in an already doomed experiment, don't you think?

Obviously the "open hunting" will NEVER be a solution, but it is also true that hunters are the persons with money and are willing to invest but they demand blood for it -they demand sacrifices-. On the other hand, amateur "naturalist" and "photographers" only take pictures and publish them in Facebook trying to create conscience, but that is the end of they help, like Sanjay mentioned before. Even worst, now Scientists (that offer true help to conserve and protect animals) are been attacked an labeled as "heartless scientists interested only in data" (quoted from the words of Dr Luke Hunter) and are even expulsed from the forests, like happened with Dr Chundawat in Panna. Check this report from 2012, I don't know if the situation is the same at 2015:

So, at the end, where is the future of the conservation:
1. The rich people that will give money ONLY if they are allowed to kill those same animals.
2. The amateur naturalists that only write in Internet but only very few enter in the true work of conservation.
2. The scientist that are "satanized" by some circles of extremists.

Remember, in this modern neoliberalism world, money have always the last word. [img]http://i.imgur.com/g8S9ZTs.png" class="lozad max-img-size" alt="" title="">
