Tribune Take: Remembering the Pakistan safari

In today’s episode of the Tribune Take we look at T-Magazine’s cover story, “A walk on the wild side”, which talks about Pakistan’s once thriving wildlife that could be compared to present day African Safaris. 

Zarrar Khuhro, editor T-Magazine, takes us through the story of how the once healthy population of Asiatic cheetahs patrolled huge tracts of land from Arabia and Iran to Central Asia and India — and present-day Pakistan was smack in the middle of its territory.

Khuhro says the Asiatic Lion though long extint in our region lives on in our present day logos, such as the logos of Habib Bank Limited, Habib Metropolitan Bank and others.
