Description
the long fangs on an Siberian tiger.Subspecies: Siberian/ Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica)
Status: Endangered
Info: [link]
Save the wild tiger! There are more captive gene freak tigers on the globe than in their natural habitat. Most of them in the USA where they can even be purchased by anyone as a "pet".
Major threat: Habitat loss and habitat destruction!
Save the tiger, save a whole ecosystem

Me too, but I'm afraid he might want to try to show me how these fangs work

My apologies, I must've read the whole discription.
~Green-Day28 corrected me with that.
I also find the habitat destruction horrible. But I don't know that many ways to stop it, I hope a lot of other people do.
And again, great photo

No worries, but reading the whole description is surely appreciated
It's somehow hard to see what one self can do to stop e.g. the rain-forests from being destroyed for (mostly) western industries; plantations (of e.g. palm oil plams), mineral resources or simply tropical wood trading.
You can buy things without palm oil (although it's quite in anything; e.g. soaps, cosmetics, chocolate). Using recycled, non chemical bleached paper. Using local, not tropical wood when buying furniture. And I think protest is another very big branch of keeping the rain forests - and with it the home of million of species - alone. Big organizations like the WWF and Greenpeace have wonderful newsletters with informations, petitions and action plans

I really hope that lots of people use those techniques you said.
The world will change 'too' much if all it's habitat will be destroyed

Beautiful photoshot and I love the combination of the title
I hate it that the Siberian tiger is one of the endangered species
It's a beautiful animal, which is getting hunt by some useless and lifeless people who only want the fur of it.
I still don't get why those poacher simply don't care that they are destroying a beautiful animal species.
They should just start a fake fur company or something else nature friendly, so that they're leaving the tigers alone.
I still want to adopt a tiger with the WWF system, so that at least some won't have to run for their lives.
But awesome photo, really

If you read the description, you'd see that the major factor in their population depletion is habitat destruction, not poaching. Sure, poaching is a problem, but isn't it always? The real issue is the destruction of their homes. There are also many fake fur companies like the one you described, but you can't expect everyone to do the same. People are people, and people are flawed. That's how it has always been.
Lovely shot, by the way, *KIARAsART .

I agree with what you said.
But to be honest when I readed: Endangered. I kinda stopped reading, because I hear more about the poachers, etc. than the habitat.
But indeed the habitat destruction is a gigantic problem as well what must be stopped.
Thanks that you corrected me there

No problem, and sorry if I was a bit harsh there. I get carried away sometimes.
