Tigers in Trouble
Governments and conservation groups are working to save the tigers. Is it
too late? Tigers are a symbol of power, courage and good fortune, but the
big cats luck may be running out. According to the World Wildlife Fund
(WWF), in 1998 there were about 6.000 tigers, now there are about 3200.
Scientists believe the decline is due to illegal hunting, climate change and
loss of habitat. Sybille Klenzendorf, a tiger expert , said that its startling
how fast they can lose their habitat. Tigers live in a wide range of areas,
people move into tiger territory and destroy much of its habitat. Today,
tigers live in 7% of the habitat they occupied a hundred years ago. 2010 is
the Year of the Tiger for the Chinese; many scientists hope people will take
action to save the tiger this year. Leaders from 12 Asian nations and Russia
are cracking down on hunters and on the sale of tiger products, theyre also
looking for ways to protect the tiger habitat. Scientists believe that with help
from local communities, tigers can make a comeback. Adapted from
