India’s Tigers May Be Rebounding, in Rare Success for Endangered Species

Big amount of money is wasted on tiger preservation compared to protecting other wildlife in the world, yet wildlife biologists have been apparently failed to prevent the decrease of the iconic big cat in the face of natural environment reduction for animals.

Prakash Javadekar, the environmental minister of India, declared that its scientific experts had computed a total of two thousand two hundred twenty six wild tigers in the country, an increase of about fifty eight percent. Today, the country provides around seventy percent of the tigers around the globe. Javadekar also added that “a great achievement … the result of the combined efforts of passionate officers, forest guards, and community participation.”

A new international study of quantity of tigers is considered in about a year. Subsequently, scientist roughly calculated there are about three thousand species living in the natural habitat, down from an estimated one hundred thousand starting of the 2oth century.

The giant cats used to live in twenty three countries yet decreased to eleven. Lately, they vanished from the wild in Cambodia and Vietnam few years ago.
