Global Tiger Day: Tiger at Tiger Temple in Kanchanaburi, Thailand

Tiger Temple in Kanchanaburi, Thailand

I took a quick look at TreeHugger today, one of the blogs I actually have time to read that doesn’t deal with technology (work), and found out that it was Global Tiger Day. I was, as always, saddened by the news that there are only about 3,500 tigers left in the wild right now (there are actually more in America!). Since poaching and habitat loss are two of the biggest risks to these wonderful animals, here’s hoping that people stop shooting them for their skins and for “traditional medicines”.
