Tigers could be extinct within 12 years: WWF
This is kinda blowing my mind.

That is really sad. Tigers are such beautiful animals.

They only have a 3 month gestation period. People need to just get them fucking.
Little bit of tiger fact, because I nerded out on tigers a few months back:
Tigers need up to 30 square miles for just one adult. Siberian tigers can go up to as much as 120 miles. Males don't share territory, but can
overlap with females to an extent. The Russian population alone could easily take up 40,000 miles of territory. Its like the state of Kentucky,
filled with 700 lb cats.

That sucks, hopefully they will turn it around.
I just read a crazy article on Russian Tigers when i was waiting at the barbershop. A guy was illegally hunting them and he shot the tiger in the leg
or something. The tiger stalked him for weeks and killed him at his cabin in the wilderness.
