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.

Pckts, that is NOT what Tigerluver said. In fact, his statement is very ambiguous as it leaves an open idea about collaring: "If the status quo is well, leave it be. If we're having trouble, we need to interfere some to find out more". This is his conclusion, pretty ambiguous to me.
You are only focusing to conservation and this is NOT science at all. Science is knowledge and capture of tigers have shown to be the most effective form to study tigers. Your method only show the biased ideas that have affected scientists in India for so long time. For people like you, scientists have been blamed for deaths of tigers, have been banned from parks and worst of all, the idea of "leave the tiger alone" has allowed poaching cases, like in Sariska and Panna, where scientists warned the personal of an imminent disaster, but they were ignored.
