    The document summarizes the dire status of tigers in India, noting that a recent census found there are only 1411 tigers remaining, far fewer than a previous government estimate of 3500 tigers. It discusses that tigers are one of the most threatened species, with only around 6000 remaining globally across fragmented forests, and that various tiger subspecies are already extinct. It concludes by suggesting ways the public can help in tiger conservation efforts such as by creating awareness, supporting causes, protecting forests, and criticizing the use of tiger skins.

    We are
    fading
    We are
    only 1411
    in
    numbers
    TIGER, TIGER
    Fading Fast
    Bitter truth!
    Its official.
    India has just 141 tigers. The 2002 census figure on 3500
    tigers was clearly an effort to cover up the Government
    failure to protect the glorious cat. This is the stark finding of
    the NATIONAL TIGER CONSERVATION AUTHORITY estimation
    report.


    The tiger is one of
    the most charismatic
    and evocative
    species on Earth, it is
    also one of the most
    threatened.
    Range of Tigers
    Only 6000 or so remain in
    the wild, most in isolated
    pockets spread across
    increasingly fragmented
    forests stretching from
    Russian far east to
    Sumatra, Indonesia.
    Across its range, this
    magnificent animal is
    being prosecuted. Today
    tigers are poisoned, shot,
    trapped and snared to
    meet the demands of
    illegal wildlife trade.
    Extinct Species of Tiger
    Bali Tiger Caspian Tiger Javan Tiger
    Surviving Species of Tiger
    Bengal Tiger
    Indochinese Tiger
    Malayan Tiger Siberian Tiger South China Tiger
    Sumatran Tiger
    What Can We Do to Help Save Tigers
    Create awareness
    Support a cause
    Forest protection
    Criticize use of
    Tiger skin
