    when he started crying it was as if he just saw a family member alive after he thought that family member died in a war long ago. you rarely see a man cry over something, his compassion for tigers is really a sight to see.

      Well having been there many times I can say above 4000m things start changing quite a bit. Below that the Himalayas are lush green dense forests, however as you can see here it’s mostly small trees, shrubs etc. More Higher up it pretty much becomes barren.

    I can understand his desperation. In Nature Resources, we understand that animals have a very wide territories but to prevent or limit development, you have to prove it. Very difficult the more solitary the creature. If you cant prove it, potential or current habitats are replaced with development. That's why trail cameras are very vital to biology and research. If you see a camera, please leave it alone, document it location, and call a ranger if you are unsure if its legit. They will check the model number and call around to make sure if it's from a school, a research team, or someone who isnt authorized.
