What is the current status of tigers in the world?
The current staus of Tigers in the world is very poor. Although there are places that are breeding tigers there are alot more places where they are being killed. In india the sale of a whole bengal tiger is enough money to keep a family of four going for two years. There are not enough places that teach keeping the tigers are alive is worth more because they will get tourists visit year on year than killing them and making money form them just once. The tiger population is in a terrible state and if things carry on the way they are they WILL not might become extinct in the wild. Its a huge challenge to change the way people think about tigers as well. Its not just about setting up a reserve and breeding a couple, although dont get me wrong this is very positive, its about changing the attitudes people have had for 100s of years.
