"The reaction of the Tibetan people, now they have been made aware of the results of their actions -- it gives a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel for the Indian tiger," "When you go back to your respective places, remember what I had said earlier and never use, sell, or buy wild animals, their products or derivatives," |
