The tiger is an endangered large carnivore that requires thousands of kilograms of prey and large undisturbed forest habitats to survive. Due to poaching, habitat loss, and human expansion, three tiger subspecies went extinct in the 20th century, and all remaining subspecies are endangered today. Conservation efforts need to involve protecting tiger habitats, spreading awareness about threats to tigers, being responsible tourists in wilderness areas, and advocating for stronger conservation policies.

The tiger is a large, territorial, meat-eating animal that needs about 3000 kg of live prey every year and undisturbed forests to live in. Any attempts to save this charismatic predator will only succeed if we have a clear understanding of what tigers need.
With one tiger we save up to 100 sq. km.of forest

In the 1970's we came dangerously close to losing forever one of the world most magnificent creatures. Poaching, deforestation, and human expansion brought all species of tiger to the brink of extinction. Indeed, over the past century, 3 of the 8 sub-species that existed became extinct; the Caspian, Javan and Balinese tigers. Today, we are by no means out of the woods. All remaining sub-species of tiger are endangered, making the tiger species as a whole nearly extinct.
Spread the word: Tell others that the tiger and its habitat are under threat and that they need our help. You can form forums (or join existing ones) on the web for discussions and exchange views on tiger conservation. Schools can become members of WWF-Indias NCI (Nature Club of India) and reach out to children. WWF-India can help you in this regard.
Be a responsible tourist: The wilderness is to be experienced and not to be disturbed and polluted. Follow the forest department guidelines when visiting any wilderness area, tiger reserve in particular. As the saying goes Dont leave anything behind except foot steps, and dont take anything except memories.
Voice your concerns with the policy makers: If you are really concerned and feel that more needs to be done for tiger conservation, then write polite letters to the decision makers - the Prime Minister, the Minister for Environment and Forests or even your local MP.
