... a tiger is a large-hearted gentleman with boundless courage and that when he is exterminated - as exterminated he will be unless public opinion rallies to his support - India will be the poorer by having lost the finest of her fauna.
Some people feel discouraged by the avalanche of species extinctions occuring in the world today, but it is possible to feel challenged, instead by the need to do something to stop the destruction.

People may someday look back on the closing years of the twentieth century as an extraordinarily exciting time when a relative handful of determined people saved numerous species and some entire biological communities.
