Some good news for Indian Tigers

This is one where those responsible should not take their eye off the ball.   The current number of tiger in India is 1700 whereas it used to be 100,000+.  I can recall when Operation Tiger started, comment was made that the decline of a predator such as the tiger was likely to follow a decline until predator / prey numbers were such that a temporary increase would occur.  At which point it was conjectured that pressure would again be placed on the species and it might decline  to extinction.  

I do hope that that prophesy is not coming true and that measures can be taken to turn this increase into a continuing development.
