Extinct in the Wild

January 22, 2014

Sadly, the South China Tiger is considered by scientists to be “functionally extinct,” as it has not been sighted in the wild for more than 25 years.  With perhaps only 100 existing in captivity, they are one of the world's 10 most endangered animals and the most endangered of the six surviving tiger subspecies, their fate primarily due to to habitat loss. Our legacy is one of economy, development and dominion above all, rather than one of respect and appreciation for the land we are apart of. But I believe a collective evolution and rise in consciousness is happening everywhere, and in greater numbers than most would like to admit. Take a look into this creature's eyes ... think about, what matters most? what do you truly want? where shall we all go from here?
