Double Wild Tiger Populations By 2022

Tigers have five surviving sub-species and they are Indochinese, Malayan, Sumatran and Amur ( The Amur tigers use to be called the Sinerian, but they have now live only within the Amur valley because their range all over Siberia have now been decreased to only the Amur valley.)

There are also four extinct sub-species and they are Balinese, Jaban, Caspian, South chinese (The South Chinese tigers have been extinct within the wild for over 70 years and only a few still live in captivity within China)

Amur Tigers are the largest of all of the living five sub-species and is one of the most well knowing of all of the types of tigers. There are now only about 350 Amur tigers that are now left within  All together there are about 100,000, due to habitat loss, poaching, pet trade and prey depletion due to unsustainable hunting by people and to put that into context of how much our loss really is would be a  decrease of about 3,200 and if we continue to allow the tiger population fall down any lower  than generations later one will only be able to see and learn about Tiger in old video and photos and I personally would not like to see this happen.

What You Could Do?

• Protect important habitat
• Habitat Restoration
• Make a responsible choices when selecting paper to help protect wild habitats: look for the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) logo on paper products.
• Help the WWF (World Wildlife Foundation) and learn more about tigers and what you could do by checking out their website.

The WWF is trying to double the number of wild tiger populations  by 2022, the next Year of the Tiger.
