That's too bad. At least they tried everything they could.

That's too bad. I just read the first article and wished her the best - I guess she needed more than a prayer.

"At least they tried"...what a horrible comment. No offense, but if I lost a living creature..I couldn't just be that way about it. I know science has its limitations right now, and there will be losses, but hopefully, we learn fast enough from our mistakes to not get to the point of saying..."at least they tried".

It's so sad that the tiger cub died. It's great that the vets tried to save her, though.

This is really sad. These animals are beautiful. There are so many things people could do to prevent these animals from being extinct. Hopefully they will turn to that before these precious animals die off.

I think that wild tigers in India are on their way to becoming extinct, so it was tragic that they couldn't save the young male. I have sympathy for the Indian villagers, many of whom have been menaced and killed by wild tigers ~ so you can understand their wanting to rid their villages of the threat. But at the same time, the world is losing a beautiful cat species ~ and India herself is losing the forest areas and wild beauty which makes the land so appealing.

How sad. Not only are the tigers being pushed out of their land, they are also being killed. I wish India would police this more.

This article makes me sad. Tigers are such beautiful creatures and it makes me sad to think that their numbers are becoming so small. Plus, the poor things were attacked out of fear, not because they actually did anything...

Sometimes, mother nature knows better. I wonder why the mother abandoned them? What a beautiful creature, and so endangered of being lost forever.

It's sad that the outcome wasn't better. It's even sadder how the tiger came to be in that condition--attacked by people who were afraid.
