When it comes to animals, everyone has its attention focused our National Animal and the most magnificent and charismatic one- The Tiger. Apart from being the national animal, the tiger continues to be the pride of India, but on the contrary, instead of saving the tiger, people have taken the most out of it, the life of the tiger itself. The tigers are reaching extinction as the people kill the tigers for their own joy and an interest in its skin and bones without taking into consideration that they should preserve the Indian wildlife treasure. The time has come now to save our Tiger! The Present Scenario: The tigers in India have been declared as an endangered species. Many projects are undertaken and many acts have been passed in the protection of the tiger. Project Tiger was launched in India under the governance of PM Indira Gandhi in 1973 and now we have projects like WWF Save Tigers. Since then there are many organizations that work selflessly to save tigers. Asia witnessed around 100,000 tigers a century ago and now the count has fallen drastically to 3,200. In India, West Bengal, where a tiger is not mere tiger, but is called as ‘The Royal Bengal Tiger’, the population of white tigers has fallen from 40,000 to 1,400. The white tiger species are now declared as the endangered ones. There are consumers who demand for the goods made of tiger skin or bones, which have finally led the government to make it illegal.
Answer:
Tigers
Tigers are endemic species now a day in the world. There are very few numbers of tigers remain to see. This is very sensitive matter. But these are not enough. There are many national parks and sanctuary in India to protect them. Conservation of wildlife is very important for all human being as it will produce imbalance in environment.
One of the biggest reasons for the decline in their population is the destruction of their habitat. Humans cut down forests and convert them into agricultural farmlands or other towns. This means that the tigers are forced to wander into human territories, looking for food. Most interactions between humans and tigers almost always end in fatal consequences. Another major reason why the tiger population is dwindling is because of poaching.
With the population of tigers dwindling at an alarming rate, many countries across the world have launched campaigns that are designed to help increase the tiger population. One of the most important campaigns launched by India is the Project Tiger, which was launched by the first woman prime minister of India – Indira Gandhi. The project was very successful in its endeavor, tripping the number of Bengal tigers from 1,200 in 1973 to 3,500 1990. However, the numbers have significantly reduced again due to poaching.
