Feedback from the students of Worthington Kilbourne High School, Columbus, Ohio - September 28, 2006

Student - 54

Summary:

  • One of Anthony Marr�s main points was about how tigers are becoming greatly endangered. Already, at least 3 out of the original 8 subspecies have become extinct and something needs to be done.
  • Another interesting point was that he was honest about his life being frustrating, but also very satisfying. He has devoted his life to an uphill battle.
  • He talked about how India is losing 6 billion tons of soil each year due to deforestation and overgrazing. This destroys the habitat for animals and humans alike.

Opinion:

In my opinion Mr. Marr was the most interesting speaker to date. I liked how he didn�t just give us a 90-minute National Geographic presentation on tigers, but instead used tigers as an example to branch off into their habitat, deforestation and our planet. One thing I felt was very intriguing was when he said that he doesn�t just give western technology to the tribes in rural India. Instead, he teaches them how to make it for themselves, like the solar oven.

I loved his stories about how tigers hunt, and how the elephant picked up his glasses which had fallen into the undergrowth. His slides were also very powerful and persuasive to his cause. The one with the stretched out tiger was very sad. The most interesting thing he said was that people say the tiger is doomed, but he doesn�t share the pessimism. He has faith in the next generation and continues to work and make a difference and I admire him very much for doing so.
