Are there really only 1,386 Bengal Tigers left?!!!
If one percent of our species was wiped out in a single night, that would be 70,000,000 (more than twice the number who died in WWI and almost as many as died in WWII) It makes "9-11" or even the Battle of the Marne seem pretty puny.
Somebody should define "crimes against the planet" and one of those crimes should be killing members of other species for the sole purpose of protecting a smaller number of our own over protected species. It would have been considered a tragedy if one of those tiger had injured one human being. A much greater tragedy occurred that night.
