What a great idea. Makes perfect sense to me.

It is very wickedness, inhumanity and lack of character this type of smuggling.

It is sad to know that the tigers need an electronic passport, but is great to know that this will help in preserving them.

Beautiful tigers. I hope the id program works – it would be tragic if these cats were to become extinct.l

as long as they are in Thailand,they are much more prone to exploitation-no matter electronically or humanly!
