Hi guys!

 

Happy International Tiger Day! 

 

If you're not familiar with it, it's an awareness and celebration day to give attention to tiger reservation around the world and promote the protection of their habitats.

 

It's really sad that there's only 3000 tigers left in the world, as of 2014, compared to 100k in 1913. Cat Sad

 

Also, random fact I found on their website: did you know that tigers can purr like domestic cats? 

 

 

International Tiger Day

 

You can read more info on tigers and the Tiger Day at their website. slight_smile

I was born in the year of the Tiger and proudly have one tattooed on my arm. Sad that man's bloodiest is hellbent on wiping this awesome creature into extinction. The hunters should be the hunted!

Awesome! I also have a cat on my arm! It's not a tiger though - I would love to have one on the side of my calf one day in the future. heart

 

Agreed on the hunters. slight_frown
