...last fall's brutal military crackdown of Burmese protesters, Rabinowitz is unapologetic about his work with the junta, knowing their cooperation was the only way to ensure the reserve would be protected. And he's right - as distasteful as it must be to work with the government, refusing to speak to them would have left the tigers of Burma on their own, defenseless.
