Long live TIGERS!

The SOUND made by the TIGERS is called GROWL *ROARRR*
The ROAR of a TIGER can be heard more than A MILE away!
TIGER'S FAVORITE FOODs are SMALL AND LARGE GAME INCLUDING WILD DEER, CATTLE AND PIGS *so stop taking away their food or otherwise you become their meal*
Every SINGLE TIGER in the WORLD has their OWN distinct pattern of STRIPES *same as our fingerprints la*
TIGERS ARE LONERS(SOLITARY ANIMAL) *so, tiger farming is not a very good idea i guess*
ALL species of TIGERS are EXTREMELY TERRITORIAL
TIGERS are NOT easy to CATCH *see poacher, dunno how much time u spent to catch a tiger, so please STOP! Go and try to catch something easier, mosquito ke?*
TIGERS are great SWIMMERS *Awesome!*
Most TIGERS except WHITE TIGERS, have ROUND, YELLOW eyes. *at least they can see 6X better than HUMAN*
A Tiger can LEAP FORWARD up to 33FEET at a time
TIGERS have a life expectancy about 15 YEARS in the WILD
TIGERS are ENDANGERED SPECIES!
A TIGER's SALIVA is ANTISEPTIC *comes handy when a tiger cleans it WOUNDS*
FAMOUS TIGER in the WORLD - TIGGER from WINNIE THE POOH :)
IN 2009, TIGER named the FAVORITE ANIMAL of PEOPLE - ANIMAL PLANET

Hi,first of all I am no tiger expert but my love towards nature make me join this BlogFest. Maybe this post is nothing as compared to others but I always believe in this philosophy:
“In the vastness of the ocean, a drop of water is no greater than the other and neither has a single drop the ability to cause a tidal wave. But if a single drop falls into the ocean, it creates ripples. And these ripples may grow and swell and eventually break foaming upon the shore.”
And hopefully these “ripples” by every one of us in this Blogfest can reach the “shore” very SOON.
We proudly claimed to the world that we are a civilized community. But how well do you know about the word civilization itself?? Below are some of the dictionary definitions of civilization that we can refer to:
1. An advanced state of intellectual, cultural, and material development in human society, marked by progress in the arts and sciences,an advanced state of moral conduct, the extensive use of record-keeping, including writing, and the appearance of complex political and social institutions.
2. The type of culture and society developed by a particular nation or region or in a particular epoch: Maya civilization; the civilization of ancient Rome.
3. The act or process of civilizing or reaching a civilized state.
4. Cultural or intellectual refinement; good taste.
5. Modern society with its conveniences: "We returned to civilization after camping in the mountains".
Think again people!!! When it comes to our very precious MALAYAN TIGER, do you think our people is a civilized community?*not to blame all, but some of us. Even the number is very small but it gve a BIG impact on our tiger's population* I know we do not have the rights to judge other people's action but we have the right to protect our treasure. Can we just keep silent if other people disturbed our valuable stuff? Or are we just watch others destroying our precious stuff??? Of course you will get angry and stuff, am I right. Same goes to our Malayan Tiger. Maybe for some people it’s just a TIGER, a BIG CAT. I think all of us know that this BIG CAT is one of our national icons. So, i just want to refresh our mind: Nah, here are some of them,
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT IS THIS ONE, COAT-OF-ARMS:
Nice logo huh??? But what happen if our current approximately 500 tigers gone? What will happen to all the logo in the future? Or can we just use the tiger as our national icon pretending that the tiger is still there somewhere in the jungle? Is it ok to use something that is not there to represent our nation?? When our children ask,
“Mommy, Daddy what is that?? The one with black stripes on the body.”
“ Owh, it’s a TIGER dear”
“Tiger?? Do we have any here? I want to see the TIGER. Can we???”
How are going to explain to them that there is no more live TIGER available. Maybe by that time we can only show the replica or videos of tiger to them. How sad is that. Damn.
So people, we must STOP all the threats that lead to COUNTDOWN OF TIGER’S EXTINCTION. Who/What is the tiger’s biggest threat?? It’s US, the EVIL human. We destroyed their habitat, we hunt and sell their body parts which believed to possess multiple medicinal properties *there is no scientific corroboration to this fact* Not only that, we also take their food away from them. Hello people, there is a lot of other meats and veges available in the market. Just go and buy from the supermarket la. Let the tigers have the deer for their lunch and dinner. You still can go for Pizza Hut, KFC, McD or buy some stuff from the market and cook yourself. Don’t ‘torture’ yourself to go into the jungle to hunt for the deer . Remember, there are still numbers of hungry tigers in the jungle *they haven’t extinct yet*, silap hari bulan you become their lunch. *Then people will blame the tiger, and ask the ranger to catch the tiger and keep in the confinement area so later it will not cause harm to any other man. Rubbish*
So, do you call yourself a civilized community when you go hunting/eating and selling your own national icons??? It’s same like selling or eating our own family members you know. Gosh, what kind of attitude is this? Please2 people STOP behaving like 0%-sense-of-civilization’s community. When u claimed you are civilized, act like one. Don’t embarrass yourself. *This one is for those who hunt/eat/sell tigers*
And for the rest of us, its TIME to ROARR people. It's now or never. No ACTION no TIGER!!!!! LET'S ROARRR together to save our TIGER!

Gosh!!! It’s the end of Season 2. Brand new season coming soon, DVM Year III.(3years to go!) So, I would like to grab this opportunity to sum up all the “sweet” and “bitter” memories as the Year II student of DVM.
Part I Season II
This was the BUSIEST semester so far in my life. *diploma’s sems also counted in*. This was when we the Year II students bcm the “hands and legs” for Dogathon 2010 (annual Doggie Day by Vet Student of UPM). I was appointed as the programmer and also the IT and Design Division. Thanx to the IT and Design head coz I din do anything for this division. J *He was SUPERB.. * For the programmer Division, fuh!!! M speechless~. Luckily I assigned to handle the Master Hunt. Nothing much to do, just plan a new layout for the mazes. That’s all. Job DONE! Thanks to all my friends that help out in the setting up of the mazes because I dun have enough man power especially on the second day of preparation for Dogathon 2009. On the Doggie day itself everything runs smoothly as planned. My game earned quite a lot on the day (Because this is the most expensive game in Dogathon hahaha). Even though we the programmer especially havin a lil bit problem with man power, but in the end with the nonstop help-supports from friends we finally SUCCEED. (if bukan kita yang puji diri sendiri siape lagi nak puji mwahahahhaha).Enuf on Dogathon, back to my study life.. “,) Before the Dogathon there was a sudden break due to “outbreak” of H1N1 (The midsem-break was being pulled forward). Positive impact – I can go back to my hometown for 1 week and all the tests were postponed to the week after the break. And Negative impact, BACK-TO-BACK tests from the first day we cme back from H1N1’s break till Friday and Dogathon was held during that weekend. Can u imagine how hectic my week was??? Sleepless night, Dogathon vs Tests dilemma.. :D owh crap *which one is more important – “Tepuk dada Tanya selera”??* Our original calendar, supposedly there was a mid-sem break right afta the Dogathon, and thanx to H1NI’s break dat we hav to go to class on the following Monday the tired, roasted and sleepy faces. Sorry to all the lecturers, u can put the blame on US! hahaha.. Putting two production courses in one semester seriously is a BAD2 idea!!! *Sorry* Or takin 2 production courses too EARLY *first sem year 2* is also a very BAD2 idea.Please2 do revise the curriculum *hav to wait another 4 years I guess*. Pity us, pity the lecturers!! As a result, the sem’s result droppd like hell, KEBABOOOM!!!!Again, put the blame on US! For practicals, I straight finishd all three during my first sem break. 2 weeks in Sarawak and another 1 in Sabah. In my own word A-superb-fun-emo-Practical-Holiday. Hahahaha.. The Part I Season II ends as I appointed as Vice President of Veternak. To be continued in Part II Season II. For the conclusion,
**see peeps, m damn FREE to do this kind of stuff but damn BUSY+LAZY to study for Finals. Don't put the blame on me, put the blame on my super Tiny-Lousy-Slow Panic Button
~will be back very SOON *anytime when i feel damn malas to do revision~
