The cruelty of snare traps

THE YEAR has not started well for our tigers. Barely two months into the new year, we have already lost six tigers in the wild, including two cubs.

In the latest incident just last Sunday, a tiger was caught in a snare meant for wild boar near an orang asli village in Tapah, injuring its right front paw.
