Absolutely. It is a beginning. I hope our forests are nursed back to health and the tiger population rise in all our protected areas, so that there are more of pugmarks, scrape marks, scats, kills and ofcourse direct sightings. I hope that would result in the artificial extrapolation of the tiger numbers by the reserve managers to stop.

Cheers,
