"Setting forests aside for tigers is one thing, ensuring that they remain protected is something else again. Protecting wildlife from poachers requires strict policing, but the battered rifles the guards carry are no match for the automatic weapons wielded by intruders."

“为老虎设立森林保护区是一回事,保证它们得到保护是另一回事。保护野生动物免遭偷猎需要严格的安保措施,但是保卫者的老式步枪并不能对付得了偷猎者的自动武器”(翻译 淡色的树)
