There are very few Sumatran tigers in the wild, so the addition of these three healthy youngsters to the world's total is very welcome.
Climate change is looming large for me at the moment. I live in the US Midwest. It's January and the grass still has a greenish tinge. We've only had a dusting of snow so far. Several days ago I heard thunder during a rainstorm. It's January!!! Year-end summaries are popping up detailing the extreme weather events of 2011. I look at them, with my hand figuratively covering my eyes and peeking through spread fingers. If you want the details, check out Jeff Masters' recent blogs - there's a link to the right.
{Insert rant here about protecting the environment because this Earth is the only home we have. I don't need to really say all that, do I? Everyone's familiar with the drill. Consider it, with the backdrop of cavorting tiger cubs.}
