Cat Chat 62

National Geographic photographer Steve Winter and Sharon Guynup recently produced Tigers Forever: Saving the World's Most Endangered Big Cat a book (published by Nat Geo Books). They have been using the book as a platform to speak up for tigers because few people know that just 3,000 remain in the wild, nor are they aware of the threats that are pushing them ever-closer to the precipice.
