"If we can’t save the tiger, then how can we save ourselves?"

  • We have to act now or this icon ic animal could be extinct in less than 20 years
  • Man is solely responsible for the slaughter of the tiger for commercial gain. In the natural world the tiger's only predator is man
  • As apex predators, tigers shape the community structure of ecosystems. They prevent over-grazing by limiting herbivore numbers and maintain ecological integrity.
  • Tigers are solitary and have large home ranges making them excellent ‘umbrella’ species providing space for a variety of other species to flourish.
  • In India, more than 350 rivers originate from tiger reserves. These reserves also sequester carbon, provide oxygen and slowly release ground water to regulate floods.
  • Protecting existing tiger habitats and the reforestation of degraded habitat may help buffer the poorest communities in Asia against the impacts of river siltation and flooding, while providing global benefits.
  • Saving the tiger will help communities and local populations benefit from habitat resources and tourism.
