Tiger Conservation Efforts

Humans pose the greatest danger to the wild tiger population.

In China, the domestic trade in tiger body parts was banned 14 years ago; however, the cultural belief in the mystical power of the tiger remains strong. As a result, poaching remains a very real threat to the wild tiger.

Indeed, it has been reported that farmers, whose land borders and encroaches on the tiger’s natural habitat, are quite open about the fact that tigers are killed so that their body parts can be used for Traditional Medicine.

Tiger in the Wild

Others cite the expansion of villages and local communities into wild tiger habitats as the gravest danger facing tigers today. Importantly, India does have good laws governing tiger conservation; however their effectiveness needs to be backed up by education in communities in order that these laws are observed.

Another important step in tiger conservation efforts has been the establishment of reserves for tigers, where they are able to roam undisturbed and the tigers’ prey can flourish in the absence of human disturbance.

By adopting a tiger today, you will be specifically helping preserve the wild tiger’s natural habitat. The WWF utilises your contribution by helping to stamp out illegal poaching, creating reserves and educating local communities, all in a bid to maintain the wild tiger population and prevent their extinction.
