A friend from Cyprus sent me this and I think it is very important to be aware and educated. Please read and sign the petition below. It's Amore to sign!
Fewer than 5,000 tigers are estimated to remain in the wild.
Every day, their numbers are declining further, largely due to demand in China for their parts for use in traditional medicine. In 1993, China established a domestic tiger parts and products trade ban to help stem the illegal tiger trade; however, now China wants to rescind the ban and allow sale of parts from tigers bred on farms for their skin and parts.
This would not only be inhumane; if trade of farmed tiger parts is allowed, it will encourage illegal (poaching) wild tiger trade too.
Please join me in signing a petition to ask the government of China to make their ban on tiger trade permanent. We need everyone who cares about these beautiful animals to sign by April 30th. It will only take a minute: Help The Tigers
