It’s truly a jungle out there for tigers
A recent report has confirmed that tigers are stressed out by increasing tourism.

But the kings and queens of the jungle, who face similar torment from jeeploads of tourists day in and day out in India have none of these options: no sunglasses, no island getaways, no threats of legal action. And if they actually retort with a roar or swipe, the fur would really fly! No wonder a recent report reveals that tigers in India are stressed out by tourism.
The rules of the jungle have changed — to the extent that tigers use underpasses to cross highways (as is happening in Maharashtra), just like monkeys and stray dogs do in cities. The ignominy of their loss of territory and authority must weigh heavy. Sadly, they can’t even visit therapists for help. Surely, then, the onus is on us to realise that unlike human celebrities, tigers really don’t relish being famous?
