RANGE
Historic

tiger range ran from Turkey through South and Southeast Asia to the far eastern shores of the continent. Today, they are only found in South and Southeast Asia, China and the Russian Far East.

REPRODUCTION
Mating Season: In

tropical climates, mostly from around November to April; during the winter months in temperate regions. Gestation: 103 days. Litter size: 3-4 cubs

Cubs

follow their mother out of the den at around 8 weeks and become independent at around 18 months of age. They leave their mothers at about 2 years. Mothers guard their young from wandering males that may kill the cubs to make the female receptive to mating.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND OTHER THREATS

As climate change continues to warm the planet, tigers are feeling the heat. As we see ocean levels rise, tigers are losing habitat due to costal erosion in areas like India's Sundarssban islands. As rising sea levels claim more habitat and sea water moves up river, naturally fresh water is becoming more saline, or more highly concentrated with salt. These factors are forcing the tigers to move northward towards areas more heavily populated by humans and increasing the likelihood of animal/human conflicts

WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR TIGERS?

Wild If

tiger numbers are at their lowest level ever.

no action is taken, tiger experts believe wild tigers may disappear altogether by 2022, the next Year of the Tiger.
But tigers can recover, and quickly as long as they, their prey, and their forest home are properly protected.

WHY SHOULD WE SAVE TIGERS?

(1)

The tiger awes you = The big cat is revered,

admired and feared in equal parts, by millions of people around the world. If forests are emptied, of every last tiger all that will remain are distant legends, zoo sightings, and one massive breach of trust.

(2) A home for tigers - a home for others =

To save tigers, we need to protect the forest habitats across Asia where they live. And by saving these places, we will not only allow tigers to roam freely, but also many other endangered species that live there and form the very thing that makes our planet unique biodiversity.

(3) Healthy tiger populations - healthy ecosystems

=As large predator, the tiger plays a key role in maintaining healthy ecosystems. These ecosystems supply both nature and people with fresh water, food, and many other vital services which means by saving the tiger, we are helping people too.

(4.) Tigers are a lifeline for many people=

Tigers can directly help some of the worlds poorest communities. For one thing, where tigers exist, tourists go. And where tourists go, money can be made by communities with few alternatives for making a living.

(5.) The tiger is a survivor = The tiger has

evolved over thousands of years. Now this big cat is being trapped, skinned, and pushed out of its home. And yet it clings to survival, barely, in a few patches of forest scattered across Asia. That's enough of a reason to give this species a fighting Chance to make it into the next decade.

Will you help tigers survive?

IN INDIA
1 .Tigers left: 1,400 2. Position: 7th 3. India has a National Tiger Action Plan.

1. 2. 3. 4.

Strengthening wildlife protection legislation Improve wildlife crime control Ameliorating human-wildlife conflicts Relocation of villages from core areas of Protected Areas (PAs) 5. Establishment of forest connectivity 6. PA infrastructure and equipment 7. Augmentation of PA staff 8. Management of forest fires 9. Controlling land use change 10. Habitat restoration for tigers and prey 11. Averting threats from development infrastructure 12. Public awareness of tiger trade bans

To save the future of Tiger Our Government take So many steps ..They are as follow

YOU CAN HELP SAVE THE TIGER!

This is clearly an emergency: if nothing is done, tigers will disappear from the wild within the next decade. No matter where you live, no matter how small your actions are, we ALL have part to play in saving the tiger and our planet as a whole. 1.) MAKE A DONATION. 2.)Donate to tiger projects. = $5 $10 $20 3. ) So when you're out shopping, look for: Certified paper and wood products = Products made from certified sustainable palm oil. If you can't find any, ask your supermarket or shop why they are not stocking any , and not helping tigers, and many other animals, to survive. For example,=the Forest Stewardship Council label ensures that paper and wood products come from well- managed forests.

5.)Spread the word =

The more people realize what simple steps can be taken to save the tiger, the more success we will have. So go on, get your friends, your family, and your workmates to help too! Send a special e-card to friends and family and help spread the word about tiger conservation!
