Another one

Hi,
Created a new blog for me. Only for me. Guess I could not write anything personal in this blog any more. People are coming to wrong conclusions on reading the posts. The other blog is only for me. Will keep posting in this blog also.

Sorry for not posting anything recently.
Am having a really tough time.

Save Our Tigers - 1

The forth coming posts will be dedicated to the endangered tiger species in India. I will try to give out as much information I get from the internet, just to make sure you know about this spotless charm of nature and how fast it is nearing its days to extinction. I will try to publish the sources from where the facts were taken. This post and the forth coming few is just my attempt to spread the news. Its time we save the remaining 5 sub species of tiger from 8. Three sub species are completely extinct. The Indian Bengal tiger is facing its days. Hope you guys read the post and spread the news and make sure every one is aware of this decimated beauty.
1) Tigers are the largest members of the cat family and are renowned for their power and strength.
2) Tigers have been classified by scientists into eight subspecies: Indian (or Bengal), Indo-Chinese, Sumatran, Amur (or Siberian), South China, Caspian (extinct), Java (extinct), and Bali (extinct).
3) Tigers are found in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia (Sumatra), Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, North Korea, Russia (Far East), Thailand and Vietnam.
4) Tigers are at the top the food chain, and are one of the most culturally important and beautiful animals on this planet.
5) Now for the most gruesome fact. Possibly as few as 3,200 tigers are left in the wild.
6) Don’t scold me, but you should know this. The binomial name for tiger is Panthera tigris.
7) The genus Panthera includes the following four big cat species, tiger (Panthera tigris), lion (Panthera leo), leopard (Panthera pardus) and jaguar (Panthera onca) that are capable of roaring. These big cats possess thickened vocal folds below their vocal cords and a roar is produced by vibrations of these folds.
8) The roar of a tiger can be heard more than a mile away. (1 mile is 1.61 km!!!!)
9) “Saving the tiger is a test. If we pass, we get to keep the planet.” – Conservationist Marjorie Stoneman Douglas.
10) Tigers live in a diverse array of habitats such as tropical rainforests, mangrove swamps, evergreen forests, grasslands, savannahs, and rocky areas.
11) Tigers are capable of penetrating deeply into their prey because of the large gap between the carnassials (back teeth) and the canines hold prey tightly.

12) The facial area of the tiger has numerous sensory neurons that can detect even the slightest change in air pressure when passing by an object.
13) Tigers are usually solitary in nature, interacting briefly only for mating purposes and occasionally to share their kill. However, there has been a few rare instances documented in which tigers have collaborated on a hunt, similar to a pride of lions.
14) Tigers are powerful swimmers, capable of traversing lakes and rivers.
15) Tigers assert and maintain their control over their territories by continuously patrolling them.
16) Females reach sexual maturity around 3 to 4 years of age and males mature at about 4 to 5 years of age.
17) Tigers usually begin their courtship by circling each other and vocalizing.( Courtship is the traditional dating period before engagement and marriage(in human’s case :).)
18) Both male and female tigers may have several mates over their lifetime.

Will get back to you with more information on my next post. Any points you want me to share in my post, I will gladly do. Please comment them if you can, so that I don't leave out any valuable information. I will be focusing on every aspect in each posts. Bye bye. See ya. Oh, and almost forgot to mention another fact. There is this thing called Tiger Years. Tiger Years are third in the cycle and recur every twelfth year. People born in a Tiger year are called Tiger people. Tiger people are sensitive, given to deep thinking, capable of great sympathy. They can be extremely short-tempered, however. Other people have great respect for them, but sometimes tiger people come into conflict with older people or those in authority. Sometimes Tiger people cannot make up their minds, which can result in a poor, hasty decision or a sound decision arrived at too late. They are suspicious of others, but they are courageous and powerful. Tigers are most compatible with Horses, Dragons, and Dogs. The tiger years are 1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998 and 2010. See if you are one of the tiger people.
