The problem is that tigers are becoming extinct. These majestic beasts are disappearing at an alarming rate. Dr. Miller has some ideas about how to solve this. He thinks that we should write to our congress people. If we let them know that we demand the preservation of this species, maybe we can make a difference. Another solution that Dr. Miller offers is that we should donate to Save the Tigers. Our donations will help to support and empower those who are fighting the hardest to preserve the tigers. We owe it to our grandchildren to do something.
