Indian Tiger Park Now Tiger-Free
Panna National Park is now officially tiger free making it the second Indian tiger sanctuary to no longer have a tiger population. A census was conducted in the park, after authorities reported no Bengal Tiger sightings for a long time. Three years ago the park had a population of 24 tigers; however, none were found this year. Forest minister Rajendra Shukla is optimistic about the news and says, "Panna is our only park which has lost on this count. Three of state's reserve forests — Kanha, Bandhavgarh and Pench — have been adjudged among the best managed tiger reserves in the country."
How do you say "you're doing it wrong" in their local language?
Village idiot in some extremely smart villages.
The asian manager of the reserve experienced massive penile growth over the past three years, and when asked about the secret of his "LONGevity", he credited "eating tiger pen^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hchinese herbs".
They haven't deployed their multi-billion ID cards to the tigers yet....

(No, really, this is awful news)

I just set up a tiger park in my office - where do I apply for funding to look after the tigers?
I haven't seen Tony the Tiger ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_the_Tiger ) for a while on TV.
Maybe he is from that Park and he has just vanished... ;-(
Everything I write is lies, read between the lines.
Given that I'm a strong environmentalist my bias is unabashedly strong, but as a confirmed atheist even I can say that if we loose this species by way of our ignorance and greed we may have grounds for establishing original sin in our kind.
Depending where you loose it, it is probably a crime as well.
Turns out Lisa's rock really did work.
Not much of a cheese shop, is it?
Q1. Why do elephants paint their 'nads red ?

Squirrel!
Is this one of the 4 Freedoms I keep hearing about ?
Squirrel!
Tigers are clearly a danger to the parks visitors so the new visitor safety campaign appears to be a great success and tourists can now roam freely around the tiger park without worrying that they or their children might become a tiger snack.
I can't believe people still fall for this hoax... There is no such thing as tigers!

I've actually had some very good experiences with human horn.

In a completely unrelated story, 24 flabulously wealthy men around the world are suing an undisclosed business because they were not actually able to get erections after taking a certain hideously expensive medicine.
