Tigers in Danger

In a dark rainforest in Malaysia, a tiger was standing quietly, waiting under the tall trees. The tiger was listening carefully, and was standing very still. He could hear strange noises, but he didn’t know what they were. This was something new for the jungle tiger- the noise of heavy traffic. Cars, buses and big lorries were driving along the new road by the forest. It connected two opposite sides of the country, but also brought the traffic much closer to the wild animals of the rainforest. The tiger was far away from his usual surroundings, and he was trying to get back to his own hunting ground. He walked forward, slowly and carefully through the trees and, as he walked, the strange noises got louder and louder.
Suddenly, the tiger stopped. Now he was in the open and there were no trees or long grass to stand in! He was now on the busy road! He knew what to do in the forest, but didn’t know what to do here. The tiger went charging in to the middle of the road – Straight in to the traffic.
The vehicles were travelling fast and many of the drivers did not even see the tiger. Then there was a loud crash, and the driver of a bus jumped in surprise. He had hit the brakes, but it was too late. One more tiger was dead.
Could this have been prevented?
