 PM Singh to help save Indias last rhinos                       
Dear friends across India, 
As the editor of Indias most trusted wildlife magazine*, Im dismayed by the increasing rhino poaching incidents in what was once a well-protected national park. And I dread the coming monsoon when brutal poachers will go on a rhino-killing spree when much of the park is inaccessible and difficult to protect. But together we can get PM Singh to help save Indias last rhinos -- before the slaughter begins.
Poachers in the pay of the illegal international wildlife trade ran riot when the government removed experienced rangers from the Kaziranga National Park, but popular pressure has forced them to reinstate some of the best people. However, thesebrave rangers are up against ruthless Rambo-style poachers carrying AK47 assault rifles and desperately need more manpower and equipment to fight back. Since this is happening in PM Singhs state, Assam, a massive, targeted public outcry can get him to help stop the rhino killing.
Sign this urgent petition to the PM and tell everyone calling on him to act to protect the rhinos before the monsoons hit and the poachers move in. When over 50,000 of us sign, we will create a media storm and stage a hard-hitting stunt outside the PMs office:

Assams national parks account for 80% of the worlds one-horned rhino population. With only approximately 2,500 rhinos left, the animal is under serious threat of extinction. During the monsoons, Kaziranga National Park gets flooded forcing rhinos into smaller and smaller areas of high ground, making them easy targets for the poachers, who sell the rhino horns through a lucrative, illegal trade in league with scamsters in places like China and Vietnam, where rhino horn is turned into bogus medical remedies. 
Back when the rangers had the manpower and equipment, no poacher would dare threaten the rhinos. But that was before the huge cuts of the last two years. The poachers are suspected to have links to militant groups who exchange rhino horns for both narcotics and heavy weapons, which are then turned on still more rhinos.
Kazirangas wildlife staff know how to deal with poachers. But they desperately need more trained staff, sophisticated communication apparatus, boats and night-vision glasses, among other essentials.
The government has already shown that it can and will act if the public demands protection for rhinos. So lets get the rangers what they need to protect themselves and save the rhinos -- sign now and share this with all your friends and family:

Time and time again, Avaaz members have come together to fight for the protection of the worlds most endangered species, from elephants in Africa to tigers in Maharashtra. Days ago, our community helped push an EU-wide ban on deadly pesticides, throwing Europe's bees a vital lifeline. Lets unite again to restore the rhinos rightful place as a special jewel in Indias diverse wildlife.
With hope and determination, 
Bittu Sahgal with the Sanctuary Asia and Avaaz teams
