Shikari Shambu - Save Wildlife!


For those of you who might not completely understand the idea here, this poster is based on Shikari Shambu - a famous hunter and comic character in a children's magazine called Tinkle. Soon there will be no wildlife left if we do not save them today. Thanks for the inputs guys, I stand corrected :)!

The idea here is, there's ltl wild life left even for Shambu to stumble upon and gain fame(as he does in every story in tinkle), hence he is no more a shikkaree

is the idea of putting him out of job to save wild life or save wild life so that you can see him in action?

Shambu never killed any animal, he just caught them.

there's a mistake in the explanation given for this ad, it is conveying that if the forest are destroyed there won't b any hunter, for the sake of joke tooo.
