TIGER RESERVE&IT'S PROTECTION

As In the case of Mullaperiyar,the Tamil Naadu is posing yet another serious problem for Kerala.This time it is in the field of  Protecting our Tiger Reserve at Periyar.Today being the World Tiger Protection day ,this is more significant.Tamilnaadu is indirectly trying to prevent protection of Tigers in the Periyar Reserve where therev are around 36 to 40 Tigers.One Tiger needs approximately 200Acres Forestland to live.Thus Kerala has approximately 923 SqKM forest Land to protect the Tigers.This indeed is a matter to be proud of especially when the Tiger Reserve of Priyar is knpwn to be the leading reserve in the World.

As the Tamil Nadu Border is almost adjacent to Keralala Tiger reserve ,the way by which Tamil Nadu is allowing hunters in  their area is becoming a constant threat to the Priyar Tiger Reserve.

The entire world is very careful in protecting their Tigers,Forest &its life  while Tamil nadu is trying to preventing to disrupt its smooth functioning.The Priyar Reserve has nostly Bengal Royal Tigers.These Tigers have long life as compared to other Tigers.Tamil Nadu tried for a Sreevalliputhur Tiger Reserve to compete with Kerala but their efforts flopped in the middle with the result they could not bring it into existence.

The Central Govt is giving every possible help to Periyar by making it a foundation.But still the interruptions  from Tamil Nadu is posing continous problems for Kerala,

The interference from the Central Govt&World Organisation interested in the protection of Tigers would appear to be necessaty to to get things set right to protect the Majestic Tigers in the long run
