Why Are Tigers Endangered? And What Can Be Done to Help The South China and the Malayan tigers are critically endangered There have been no sightings of the South China tigers in the wild in several years, so that subspecies may already be extinct It has been predicted that all tigers may become extinct in the wild within the next decade The nine subspecies are: Siberian Tiger; Bengal Tiger
Watch: Rare Tiger Family Caught on Video in China The Siberian tiger's fate fits an overall trend of tiger decline: Scientists estimate there are around 3,200 animals in the wild, down from an estimated 100,000 at the beginning of the 20th century
Human Population Growth and Extinction - Biological Diversity With enormous, cheap energy at its disposal, the human population grew rapidly from 1 billion in 1800 to 2 billion in 1930, 4 billion in 1975, and over 7 5 billion today If the current course is not altered, we’ll reach 8 billion by 2020 and 9 to 15 billion (likely the former) by 2050

International Tiger Day: Fewer than 4,000 tigers remain in . . . SILVER SPRING, Md – July 29 is International Tiger Day, which celebrates a critically endangered species and inspires help for tigers, which are vanishing Tigers are one of the most threatened victims of illegal trade In the last century, 97% of the wild tiger population has disappeared, and fewer than 4,000 tigers remain in the wild
Predicted Pleistocene–Holocene range shifts of the tiger Introduction Tigers are endangered and occupy only a small fraction of their historical range (Walston et al , 2010) The changing isolation or interconnectivity of tiger populations has wide-ranging implications for both in situ and ex situ conservation efforts, as conservationists currently aim to preserve what are assumed to be genetically distinct populations whilst attempting to
How do human-tiger conflicts impact tiger populations? As evident from the table, the available habitat and prey abundance significantly impact tiger populations’ distribution and the frequency of human-tiger conflicts Understanding the relationship between tiger range, habitat, and prey is crucial for devising effective strategies to mitigate conflicts and ensure the long-term survival of these magnificent a
