The point of constructing such a site is to save India's few remaining tigers (Panthera Tigris Tigris) or P.t.tigris. At www.saveindiastigers.co.uk what we mean by 'India's Tigers' are the Bengal tigers, Royal Bengal tigers, white tigers or white Bengal tigers. It is vital we all come together saving Indian tigers in what is called 'The age of extinction' for tigers as a whole.

There are several sensible arguments, which can be marshalled to justify why we should save India's tigers. For instance Indian forests, which do watershed most of their important river systems, play a dominant role in performing these functions, besides harbouring the Indian tigers. If wisely managed with the Bengal tigers some of the Indian forest landscapes can also provide rural and urban populations the fuel, timber, bamboo, rattan, and a whole host of non-timber products, needed for their sustenance. The Bengal tiger are a key species of these forests in harbouring millions of plant and animal life forms. Moreover the Indian tiger is at the end of a complex chain of ecological relationships, this also includes plants which directly produce energy from the sun, and the herbivorous animals upon which Panthera Tigris Tigris preys. One of the most effective ways of being sure of saving complex life linkages and ecological processes is to ensure that the top predators of India such as tigers are thriving in an intact assembly of predators, prey and plant communities. Surely destroying the remaining few per cent of land on which India's tigers live on now, to solve some problem or the other which society has not been able to solve despite full access to the remaining high percent over the centuries, does not make any sense.

By saving the last refugia of Indian tigers which are them themselves wonderful natural libraries we will be able to observe and learn many a things. The tiger forests of India are the last links to a natural world from which we came a rich source of education. They are an irreplaceable library of nature for generations to come, and advocating their destruction in the name of progress, or temporary local benefits, is akin to burning down an ancient Indian library. Will you ask yourself this, 'do humans who evolved during the last few seconds of the history of life in India have a fundamentally superior moral right to wipe other species like the tiger off the land, or do we all have a moral duty in helping Indian tigers on at least a tiny fraction of India's landscapes'? If the latter is the case, at least in its last refugia the Panthera Tigris Tigris right to survive as species overrides the rights of individual men to extirpate them.
