Only the very best and the very respected receive the kind of reception given to Fred by the Maharajah and his servants. This speaks volumes for the esteem that Mr Bear has earned from so many, for so long. Fred Bear was a legend in his own life-time, and remains one still. Bravo indeed! What a man.
@@ryanthomas9661 No other country other than USA allows wanton killing of school children with military grade weapons like USA. Sick politicians on the payroll of NRA.
+jnixa1010 tell you a story which is true,more animals in Africa are shot now because morons think it great to go on walking safari to get closer to the animals ,the animal then is shot buy the guide,because it goes after people in the walking safari,what's wrong with a jeep .
@CLOUT Wrong! You ignored the part that the native Majaraja and his father had their skinner do over 800 tigers. Local rulers brought in white hunters when they needed a better hunter to rid them of a hard to kill tiger, or when they wanted to learn another method of hunting. But they controlled tiger hunting for the good of the people.
Human expansion and poaching for chinese traditional medicine markets in China is the main reason for near extinction of Tiger form the wild. It's NOT hunting by sport hunters.
Just a fantastic video remember watching VHS tapes of mr bear when I was a kid . Was the reason I picked up a bow I saw all the amazing places he went to hunt and I wanted to see them places to so I traveled more for the hunt . He was just inspiring
Fred bear not only hunted, but much like Teddy Roosevelt was a avid conservation advocate. He filmed hunt not to boast of his kills but to share with western "civilized" people that what he's trying to save. Most people then didn't care what happened in other lands because they where not globally into the economy.
The comments remind me that many people do not consider things in context. Many animals considered endangered now were not always so. Moreover, in the past, predators like tigers and lions sometimes killed significant numbers of people in rural settlements. I understand someone arguing that one should not hunt a tiger today, given the current context (though as a thought experiment, if tigers were as plentiful as deer, would you change your mind and be okay with it? If not your reason is no reason at all). But what I cannot understand is people badmouthing folks from the past without spending a wit thinking about the context in which they lived or acted. This goes beyond the silliness of, if you are firmly anti-hunting, why are you even watching a video like this unless it is to vent your spleen. It is about intellectual honesty and fairness. From everything I have read about Mr. Bear he was not just a cool guy but a genuinely good man. Of course I'm biased because I shoot a traditional bow, but come on. If you are going to judge people based on one thing out of context imagine what equally ignorant and biased future generations might say about YOU?
Indeed fully agree; today's world some how for some people tiger is far precious than human's lives; sickening attitude, but that is what we have deal with!
One very good movie ,and it make one wish India was open for visiting hunting to this day also,it would have been a wonderful visit that would have carried on in the thoughts for a very long time.
India is so beautiful. My sister has actually been there BC my brother in law's friend got married there and the family was so rich that they paid or everyone's trip. I am sure they had an estate much like this one which reminded me of the story.
Hunting with Gun that too sitting on top of elephant with group of people BULLSHIT and they think they had achieved something by killing the TIGER COWARD Guys but BULLSHIT on their minds
Hunting isn't wrong. if it weren't for hunters your ancestors wouldn't have survived to create your judgmental ass. hunting is actually more humane than the factory "farms" that supply our meat for super markets
Fred has killed every animal on earth with a recurve bow, pure skill with both his nerve and aim in perfect synchronicity bringing down every living, flying, hopping, crawling, running, slithering, running, galloping, swimming, charging, hiding, roaring, breathing animal on earth... except one
Hunt - "search determinedly for someone or something." Is this a hunt? An army of beaters directing the tiger to the killer who is hiding safely on a machan..
Honest question. Given that tiger populations have increased in recent years, should it be legal to hunt them again with a strict quota and a limited number of tags per area per year? In my opinion, if they legalize tiger hunting, the parts used in Chinese traditional medicine should be burned, only very old males should be bagged (leave mothers with cubs alone!) And the countries where the hunts take place should be northeast India 🇮🇳 due to high density of 🐅, Russia 🇷🇺 where tiger and Amur leopards have somewhat increased and Nepal 🇳🇵 where poaching of tigers and rhinos is low.
If hunting starts hunters will sell the tiger products to China as they sells in thousands of dollars..and every so called brave man will try to hunt as much as they can...and govt greedy of money will allow that ...and the rest of the population will be wiped out within decades......there were 1 lakh tigers at 1900 and came down to less than 10,000 in India just because of hunting...
Holy Shit..... I was just looking up Stories I didn't think there'd be a Man crazy enough in relatively recent history to actually do it... This is an interesting part of history
Awesome. That's royalty and class. And most of these princes were all Indians. They were the ones in fact to teach the british how high the head can be taken to a stage of royal bliss.
Tiger never knew what the arrow was: Both sides pierced through, deadly tore through inside tiger's internal organs why it did not go far after being hit!
We’re not alone when we’re in the Great Outdoors, we got his spirit we got his soul he will guide our steps, He will guide our arrows home, the restless spirit forever roams, Fred Bear. -Ted Nugent.
It was a lot less exciting than I hoped with so many natives herding the confused tiger into range. I thought it'll involved a bit of tracking and sneaking from down wind to get close enough for a clean shot without being eating.
And you are misguided. I suppose you can look the other way if a tiger or lion, or similar large carnivore eats a human being? That is what you get when you somehow equate that people are no better than animals. Of course, the whole notion of human "stewardship" isn't taught anymore in the liberal colleges because it's politically incorrect to inject that Christian notion into the dialectic.
I have to admit the same, being a traditional bowhunter myself-200 people to hunt this Cat, herded in front of Bear, who made a stunning shot btw-I was more impressed by the cat myself; takes real courage to hunt big cats for one, and knowledge, but its more like an army hunting the critter, now that I see it. Frankly its not possible to bowhunt a big Cat in the ordinary sense, without getting 'et, they can hear like no human can, walk silently and appear right before you in a blind. I was disappointed to see this magnificent creature get stomped by the elephant, but I suppose it is understandable from the locals who often live in fear, and the elephant. Personally I abhor any hunting that isn't carefully controlled by biologists-modern hunters are much smarter, and must not exert too much pressure on game herds, but if the herd needs culling then hunting is appropriate with a good kill, the fact that some of those hunters call it trophy hunting is irrelevant, even if many consider it distasteful. I don't think I would care to hunt any species that took a gang of people to hunt myself, that's not what bowhunting is to me Different times
Mostly because we brits gave them sanitation, modern farming, modern medicine, democracy, rule of law and best of all a unified country called India which brought peace to go with the prosperity all bringing on a 250 year baby boom.
No he was right handed but really struggle with target panic so switched to his left to combat it. Apparently it worked. Ted Nugent and a few other guys who hunted a lot with him over the years have talked about it
Who can pull 105 pound bows? I have taken a 1500 pound moose with a 55 pound recurve bow (see my photo) and have seen moose taken with a 45 pound recurve. Poundage is not needed as much as shot placement. P.S. I can't figure why anti-hunters watch these videos...do they really think their ranting will change any hunters minds? Do they think we will be impressed by their lack of understanding? They are funny.
Mike Misch the 105# he was referring was a restriction for dangerous game in Africa. These restrictions have changed over the last few years with advancements in the technology of today's compound bows making them much more efficient than those of the past. Now, it is mostly based on kinetic energy rather than draw weight. I'm not sure how recurves factor in since I have only used a compound in Africa and never taken a recurve out of the states. This link has all of the restrictions for several countries in Africa: www.bowhuntingsafari.com/Africa.html You can click on the individual countries and it will give you each one's restrictions if you scroll down and click "Gear Restrictions." Zambia still goes by draw weight but with arrow weight factored in.
Mike Misch I don't mind hunting animals which we eat, but we don't eat Tigers. And mostly hunters are old men who are not functional in their bedrooms anymore. They have to compensate somehow by trophy hunting. Can you stand face a Tiger or a Lion inside a cage and hunt it coward. You hide, bait the unsuspecting beast, then shoot with a rifle, there is no honor in that. Trophy hunters should be hunted. Go see a doctor and stop killing innocent animals. Again I am talking about Trophy hunters not hunters who kill to eat, much respect to them.
I watched a older hunting trip like this one the hunter was on the back of a huge elephant and the tiger jumped up from cover and next thing everybody knew it was on the elephants back with the hunter. If i would have been the hunter it would’ve took me two days to wash the poo off the poor elephant.
There is no need to bitch about who killed what, they are the people who kept this world alive. Hunters. Are gatherers. Humans need food just as animals do.
Another one... If you're anti-hunting, and you see a video labelled as a "Hunting video" then don't watch it!! How hard is that to figure out?? if you don't want to see an animal be hunted then don't click on a hunting video. Plain and simple. Hunters get enough of this b.s. as it is in the field and we don't need it when we're at home trying to relax
Chantel K when its killing for a trophy i don't agree with it but i think they said at some point that it had attacked villagers and livestock so its a matter of the Maharaja protecting his people
"Attack" as in war with 100 troops armed with Ak's, grenades, mortars and tanks. Killing 100's & injuring 1000's or just a predator hunting/hurting 1 human vs 100's trying avenge it later. Stupid Maharaja's would surely need the support of people like you.
Nothing wrong with tiger hunting, or any sport hunting, for that matter!If you take a selfie with your kill, that's called trophy sport hunting!And who wouldn't like to bag a tiger with a bow! The ultimate sporting adventure!You get the head and hide, and the villagers get the meat!Everyone wins, even the tiger, since hunts like this are necessary to keep animal populations manageable and healthy!Believe me, tigers are no where near extinction, and that's because of hunters!Like the man said, hunters are the conservation movement, and that includes trophy hunters!
Sports Hunting in India has been banned since 1972, due decades of unregulated and unsustainable hunting done both by the British raj and Maharajas from the princely states of India to the wildlife and tigers. Fun fact There are many different types of Maharajas like Rajas, Shahs, Nawabs and etc... All from 500+ different princely states of India. Keep in mind each of the Maharajas have names based off of what state or region their from in India.
Everyone has been in power, before British Mughals ruled India but Tiger populations were large because almost all cultures and religions respect wild animals especially animals like Tiger except the savage of all.
People who troll these video's and spew venom and hatred about hating tiger hunting......always live in safe places where tigers don't kill their family members. Ask some of these people who have tigers hunting their village area's about how they feel?? Same in Africa. It is easy to sit at starbucks in los angeles and whine about hunting. Yet when a cougar or bear wanders into the suburbs they are the first to cry for its removal............
Marbles McGee If you ever venture out of safe haven and have a dangerous predator come after you, try talking and reasoning with it, let me know how that works out for you???
MrAzrancher so we should kill everything in the world that poses a threat to us? Really? Everything that can hurt or kill us? Every shark, every poisonous snake, every snake large enough to eat a person,every last dangerous animal on the planet. You do realize that people kill far more people than all the other animals on the planet kill, with the exception of mosquitos...combined.
+MrAzrancher Fuck the villagers! The tigers have NOWHERE to go because their habitat is shrinking because of these cunts! I hope all of their family members died slowly and in agony!
Esto me huele al mismo tipo y al mismo tono de voz hablando sobre sus famosas prácticas nucleares... Probablemente este es el comienzo de la extinción de tan bella especie
Any hunters know what kind of tackle Fred used to take the tiger? never really thought about it but it looks like it took about 200 people to kill this tiger
You gotta have an awful amount of confidence in your equipment plus a big pair of kohunas to hunt tigers with a bow. An arrow causes blood loss and is quite lethal just not instantly so.
LAND OF ''BUDDHA''.......? WHAT OBVIOUS AMERICAN OR FOOL WROTE THIS ? ...................and CHINESE MUSIC ?? ......WHAT STATE ARE YOU FROM, BILLY-BOB ??? AWESOME STUFF ANYWAYS .......
+Jake Barbee It's an ancient symbol and was long used by Indian people to denote auspiciousness. The Nazis just adopted it. Some cultures still use it.
Jake Barbee many cultures have used swastikas to promote protection and good luck. The vikings used the swastika because it symbolized good luck. The natives in the US used it for prosperity. Its not an evil symbol by any means. It was so used as a symbol of peace in some cultures.
To the posters of this video: Modern archery hunts in africa require a 105lb draw weight for the big five. Did Mr. Bear's bow have a draw weight greater than 85 lbs?
The requirements for Africa actually vary by country and have changed a bit in the last couple of years. It's not so much based on draw weight as it is kinetic energy. Some still use draw weight but have reduced the poundage. This link should provide some examples... www.bowhuntingsafari.com/Africa.html You can click on the individual countries and it will give you each one's restrictions if you scroll down and click "Gear Restrictions." Zambia still goes by draw weight but with arrow weight factored in. They require a 70# draw weight with a 550 grain arrow for leopard and lion,and an 80# 700 grain arrow for buffalo and hippo. The reductions are to accommodate today's modern compound bows which are much more efficient than compounds of the past and definitely more so than recurves.
Do you know the population of Tigers then? Do you know how many human lives they took? Do you know how many hungry people got to eat from it? Because I don't. give me info.. Please actually give me proof of your reasons it was bad at the time? Like graphs, charts,pictures.Any thing besides you just saying it. PLEASE
@@GoldenBasssn I don't care about human lives. We have over populated the planet. Do you know how many fucking Indians there are now? Too many. Not enough tigers to eat them is the issue.
While their was a mass slaughter with a mix of poaching and unsustainable unregulated trophy hunting, there was also rapid habitat loss of wildlife. It was mostly large and vast tracts of forests in India that were being cut down from colonial forestry practices imposed under the british raj. Because of mass deforestation, forests were cleared to make way for commercial reasons used as cash crops such as tea plantations or the expansion of agriculture that had more land needed to be cleared for cultivation. Infastructure expansion of railroads, roads, and the demand for wood that had to get met in England, because they had already depleted their natural resources all contributed to shrinking of India's forest cover from 50% to a ridiculous 24%, Sadly.🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🧐😲🙁😔
POACHING, NOT HUNTERS!! HUNTERS ARE FOR RESPONSIBLE GAME MANAGEMENT AND NOT INDISCRIMINATE KILLING LIKE POACHERS. HUNTERS ARE STAUNCHLY ANTI POACHING!!
@@johnkertzman3520 Tigers are endangered due to trophy hunting, loss of habitat & Black market for tiger parts. Tigers used to be very big. They lost their gene pool due to excessive hunting. I hope everyone who did this to tigers rot in hell
NO!!! POACHING IS WHY THEIR NUMBERS HAVE DWINDLED, AS WELL AS IGNORANCE OF ASIAN POPULATION AS TO MEDICINAL USES OF ANIMAL PARTS, SUCH AS TIGER PENIS. HUNTERS SUPPORT RESPONSIBLE GAME MANAGEMENT, NOT WANTON KILLING, AND HUNTER'S DOLLARS FUND MORE CONSERVATION AND ANTI POACHING EFFORTS THAN ANYONE ELSE.

+hampe hjsjdf I think animals are beautiful and worth it you idiot, and how can you eat cake and save it for later? what does that have to do with it?

Hunters get enough of this b.s. as it is in the field and we don't need it when we're at home trying to relax
Amen well put David Howe these people know nothing about conservation there ignorance amazes me
Chantel K when its killing for a trophy i don't agree with it but i think they said at some point that it had attacked villagers and livestock so its a matter of the Maharaja protecting his people
"Attack" as in war with 100 troops armed with Ak's, grenades, mortars and tanks. Killing 100's & injuring 1000's or just a predator hunting/hurting 1 human vs 100's trying avenge it later. Stupid Maharaja's would surely need the support of people like you.
butthurt wussies whining
I watch to sicken myself and to stoke my passion to campaign against this in 2019. It's sad that you glorify in the death of animals.
Tackle & Grapple
Humans are big animal
My mother named me ‘mongoose head’ and I got bashed at school...
I am not a hunter and do not know much about it. Howewer i thought that letting the elephant kick the tiger was disrespectful.
Elephants do not like Tigers

Nothing wrong with tiger hunting, or any sport hunting, for that matter!If you take a selfie with your kill, that's called trophy sport hunting!And who wouldn't like to bag a tiger with a bow! The ultimate sporting adventure!You get the head and hide, and the villagers get the meat!Everyone wins, even the tiger, since hunts like this are necessary to keep animal populations manageable and healthy!Believe me, tigers are no where near extinction, and that's because of hunters!Like the man said, hunters are the conservation movement, and that includes trophy hunters!
+nuclearape1
tigers are nowhere near extinction? what year are you talking about?
@@bunnybop234 Yes, it is extremely fun. Only thing better is teaching children how to hunt also.
Dumbest statement I have ever read on the entire internet
Sports Hunting in India has been banned since 1972, due decades of unregulated and unsustainable hunting done both by the British raj and Maharajas from the princely states of India to the wildlife and tigers. Fun fact There are many different types of Maharajas like Rajas, Shahs, Nawabs and etc... All from 500+ different princely states of India. Keep in mind each of the Maharajas have names based off of what state or region their from in India.
Mixed feelings. 9 billion people now and a couple thousand wild tigers, if that. Oh well it was a different time and Bear was real man...
Everyone has been in power, before British Mughals ruled India but Tiger populations were large because almost all cultures and religions respect wild animals especially animals like Tiger except the savage of all.
Poachers are the evil ones.
People who troll these video's and spew venom and hatred about hating tiger hunting......always live in safe places where tigers don't kill their family members. Ask some of these people who have tigers hunting their village area's about how they feel?? Same in Africa. It is easy to sit at starbucks in los angeles and whine about hunting. Yet when a cougar or bear wanders into the suburbs they are the first to cry for its removal............
+MrAzrancher
so we should kill all the predators so that they can't kill us first. Good thinking.
Marbles McGee If you ever venture out of safe haven and have a dangerous predator come after you, try talking and reasoning with it, let me know how that works out for you???
MrAzrancher
so we should kill everything in the world that poses a threat to us? Really? Everything that can hurt or kill us? Every shark, every poisonous snake, every snake large enough to eat a person,every last dangerous animal on the planet.
You do realize that people kill far more people than all the other animals on the planet kill, with the exception of mosquitos...combined.
+MrAzrancher Fuck the villagers! The tigers have NOWHERE to go because their habitat is shrinking because of these cunts! I hope all of their family members died slowly and in agony!
+MrAzrancher Whatever ya say Assrancher.
Good hunt 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
RESPECT.
You can skip the first 20 minutes.
muinto bom
Esto me huele al mismo tipo y al mismo tono de voz hablando sobre sus famosas prácticas nucleares... Probablemente este es el comienzo de la extinción de tan bella especie
Any hunters know what kind of tackle Fred used to take the tiger?
never really thought about it but it looks like it took about 200 people to kill this tiger
A 52" 65lb @ 28" draw Kodiak Magnum. Bear Arrow and bear razor head
Thank you,
I think the 65# is the most efficient draw weight, even though I have a goal to surpass 100# before I'm gone
Bob, do you know if that was the take-down bow that Fred liked so much?
he said it was in a later interview
You gotta have an awful amount of confidence in your equipment plus a big pair of kohunas to hunt tigers with a bow. An arrow causes blood loss and is quite lethal just not instantly so.
LAND OF ''BUDDHA''.......? WHAT OBVIOUS AMERICAN OR FOOL WROTE THIS ?

AWESOME STUFF ANYWAYS .......

Which year?
NIce Hunting.
HORRIBLE HUNTING, THOSE PEOPLE ARE POACHERS JUST FOR KILLING ENDANGERED SPECIES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Recurve Bow. That's big balls.
Is that a swastika at 23:42?
+Jake Barbee It's an ancient symbol and was long used by Indian people to denote auspiciousness. The Nazis just adopted it. Some cultures still use it.
I knew they had adopted it from somewhere. Just sorta caught me by surprise when I saw it.
Jake Barbee many cultures have used swastikas to promote protection and good luck. The vikings used the swastika because it symbolized good luck. The natives in the US used it for prosperity. Its not an evil symbol by any means. It was so used as a symbol of peace in some cultures.
Hunting tigers with a bow, what a mad Lad. 😳
its not mad its perfect
To the posters of this video: Modern archery hunts in africa require a 105lb draw weight for the big five. Did Mr. Bear's bow have a draw weight greater than 85 lbs?
Bears bow was most often 70#
Okay, Thank you cery much.
The requirements for Africa actually vary by country and have changed a bit in the last couple of years. It's not so much based on draw weight as it is kinetic energy. Some still use draw weight but have reduced the poundage. This link should provide some examples...
www.bowhuntingsafari.com/Africa.html
You can click on the individual countries and it will give you each one's restrictions if you scroll down and click "Gear Restrictions." Zambia still goes by draw weight but with arrow weight factored in. They require a 70# draw weight with a 550 grain arrow for leopard and lion,and an 80# 700 grain arrow for buffalo and hippo. The reductions are to accommodate today's modern compound bows which are much more efficient than compounds of the past and definitely more so than recurves.
Blake Ivey Thank you for the further information.
Nathan LaForce #65 was his go to..he used #95 for his elephant.
tiger hunters are heroes
They are not heroes they are murderers
BULLSHIT
Do you know the population of Tigers then? Do you know how many human lives they took? Do you know how many hungry people got to eat from it? Because I don't. give me info.. Please actually give me proof of your reasons it was bad at the time? Like graphs, charts,pictures.Any thing besides you just saying it. PLEASE
@@GoldenBasssn I don't care about human lives. We have over populated the planet. Do you know how many fucking Indians there are now? Too many. Not enough tigers to eat them is the issue.
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 THEY ARE POACHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lets see the hunt already!!
Brutal
While their was a mass slaughter with a mix of poaching and unsustainable unregulated trophy hunting, there was also rapid habitat loss of wildlife. It was mostly large and vast tracts of forests in India that were being cut down from colonial forestry practices imposed under the british raj. Because of mass deforestation, forests were cleared to make way for commercial reasons used as cash crops such as tea plantations or the expansion of agriculture that had more land needed to be cleared for cultivation. Infastructure expansion of railroads, roads, and the demand for wood that had to get met in England, because they had already depleted their natural resources all contributed to shrinking of India's forest cover from 50% to a ridiculous 24%, Sadly.🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🧐😲🙁😔
Now ...who is responsible for tiger extinction...
Those people that got tired of tigers eating their family and livestock.
POACHING, NOT HUNTERS!! HUNTERS ARE FOR RESPONSIBLE GAME MANAGEMENT AND NOT INDISCRIMINATE KILLING LIKE POACHERS. HUNTERS ARE STAUNCHLY ANTI POACHING!!
A tiger dies the same way any animal once shot will gun or bow 🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅
Do they wipe his arse for him too.
Intelligent two-legged creatures is most dangerous of all.
Are you talking about Amerikans?
🇧🇩🤎🇧🇩🤎🇧🇩🤎
'death
Rrrrrr
The poor beaters were in grave danger once the tiger was wounded... While the hunter was safe up a machan
I bet they were very happy for the money they made to feed their families and grateful of one less tiger that may have eaten a member of the village.
2:39 "This small rodent..." Mongooses are NOT rodents. They are carnivores.
and that's why they endangered...
I'll Save The Tigers When I Grow Up, Tigers Are My Favorite Wild Cat Since I Was A Kid, 🐅❤
Scarface One Eye that is a hard NO they are endangered because of the encroachment of men on thier habitat, not sport hunting!
@@johnkertzman3520
Tigers are endangered due to trophy hunting, loss of habitat & Black market for tiger parts.
Tigers used to be very big. They lost their gene pool due to excessive hunting. I hope everyone who did this to tigers rot in hell
NO!!! POACHING IS WHY THEIR NUMBERS HAVE DWINDLED, AS WELL AS IGNORANCE OF ASIAN POPULATION AS TO MEDICINAL USES OF ANIMAL PARTS, SUCH AS TIGER PENIS. HUNTERS SUPPORT RESPONSIBLE GAME MANAGEMENT, NOT WANTON KILLING, AND HUNTER'S DOLLARS FUND MORE CONSERVATION AND ANTI POACHING EFFORTS THAN ANYONE ELSE. ANIMAL RIGHTS AND PETA DO VERY LITTLE TO NOTHING AT ALL FOR WILD ANIMALS, INSTEAD JUST LINING THEIR OWN POCKETS WITH RIDICULOUS SALARIES. PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS!!!
@@pokemonitishere202 NOT FROM TROPHY HUNTING, BUT POACHING, WHICH IS ILLEGAL AND WE HUNTERS COMBAT POACHING AND ESPOUSE CONSERVATION. GET IT RIGHT!!
Bhartiyon ko tamasha hi bana Diya gaya tha.
What the fuck is he conserving?
+hampe hjsjdf There are over 8 billion people. I dont see anybody killing them off. there are only 20, 00 tigers left. people are killing them off.
You think this is ok.
***** So killing Tigers in India will help their population? Aren't they the apex predator after man? With dwindling numbers? You seem to be confused.
+James Lopez What? all I'm saying is that you shouldn't hunt, your comment doesn't make sense...
+hampe hjsjdf What the heck? I want animals to live idiot, its us who are hunting them down. And expanding cities and cutting down forest is all horrible too, I want it all to just stop. Its like, I have 6 skittles, then I eat 3 skittles. Now I have more skittles. That's what your saying
+hampe hjsjdf I think animals are beautiful and worth it you idiot, and how can you eat cake and save it for later? what does that have to do with it? The WWF doesn't support hunting idiot, they say in the ads "poaching and hunting is a problem". Honestly if your for hunting, how can you be for animals? idiot..
Shameful coward sitting high up on a machan and taking a shot at an unsuspecting beast. Sad to see how indian 'royalty' first sucked up to the brits and after their departure, to rich americans.
sailordoc2007 Hinduism at best, before then they sucked up to the Mughals. Hinduism teaches to be subservient and not value one self but suck up to power.
The only difference between animals and humans...
Animals hunt for food but human hunt for sport... surely we are the greatest creature🤔
Some animals hunt for sport. House cats, for example.
@@coyotejohn3101 just the side effects of living with humans😂
@Nairu Kawa not really...there may be few exception..but its not true with the majority
Sad to see. Such a beautiful animal.
