Prized Paws

India is slowly growing, growing and growing faster on the population curve. And so far, there is no such serious provision to stop the mounting curve. Even the economic development curve is going towards a steep rise, and same is the case with India’s literacy rate and other ‘important’ developing topics. But a curve is precipitously declining, and that curve is for the “rate of tigers”.

The tigers in India were, at one time, considered to be among the most valued and healthy ones in the world. But now, if ever you walk past the Jim Corbett, you will hardly notice a tiger. And against my words, if you do get to see one, then consider that the lady-luck is with you.

The word important was marked because conservation of tigers and other endangered species is not considered an issue here. In India, government is engaged in trying to deal with corruption, economy and oversea relationships but not the topic which is in grave danger due to its negligence. Flora and fauna of a country is considered to be her valuable assets but here, they are pathetically falling into danger due to India’s economic development.

We, the future of tomorrow, can make a revolutionary change in government’s scheme of things and put the ‘tiger issue’ at the peak of their plan. Together, we can stop the untold damage we have been doing to them, just because of our greed for power, prosperity and prestige.

If at all, we are successful, we can create a revolution, an extraordinary uprising which can change the Indian perception towards tigers. And after all, Tiger is the national animal of India. If we do not act soon, the government would have to find a new national animal.
