Are tigers extinct endangered or threatened?
All tigers are endangered. Some more so than others.The Bengal and Indochinese races are the most common,with around 1500 cats each. Then come the Siberian and Sumatran,with 600 each. The south china tiger has not been positively seen the wild for over 20 years and maybe gone from the wild. Some experts say there may be around twenty left. A re-wilding project is underway in South Africa to teach zoo born south china tigers to hunt so they can be released in their former range. Three races,the Caspian, Javan and Bali tigers are gone forever.
