    I've heard that also. I think what's frightening is the fact that, as
    long as there's a potential for consumer demand, some depraved,
    desperate, or ignorant specialist out there will be willing to sell
    tiger products. The population of China is so vast that even if a
    small percentage of Chinese consumers are still willing to pay for
    tiger products, and even if just a few Chinese medicine specialists
    sell the products, then the tigers still may be completely eliminated.
