Short followup 1: Tiger meet

Thirteen countries meeting in Indonesia to refine tiger survival plan:

Tiger countries meet in Indonesia to map rescue

WWF says the global, wild population of tigers of all species has fallen from about 100,000 to an estimated 3,200 over the past century.

Countries invited to attend the St. Petersburg summit are Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Russia, Thailand and Vietnam.

The pre-summit talks in Bali from Monday to Wednesday will hear details of each country's tiger protection plans and funding proposals.



I think the tiger should somehow get next to the giant panda in the WWF logo.
