Global Tiger Day is also an opportunity to highlight the work of WWF conservationists in 11 Asian countries who are working to save tigers and showcase recent conservation results.
WWF relies on Mila and others to protect the remaining wild tigers, boost political commitment to tiger conservation and engage local communities in our work. WWF’s goal is to:
double wild tiger numbers by 2022ensure that tigers, and the forests they call home, have a future
Recent results yield hope for the future
WWF’s work on tiger conservation is paying off. Studies done since March 2011 show:
tiger numbers have increased to 25 in Bhutan's Manas National ParkIndia’s overall tiger population has increased 20 percent from the last survey in 2006, including in India’s Manas National Park
Manas National Park is part of one of the 12 priority landscapes identified by WWF where wild tigers have an excellent chance to rebound.
There are two Manas National Parks that border each other, one in Bhutan and one in India. Historically, both parks were pristine wildlife sanctuaries that teemed with tigers, rhinos and elephants. Years of strife in the area between the Indian government and separatists led to unchecked poaching, habitat destruction and neglect of both parks.
A peace accord was signed in 2003 and now, while some security issues remain the prospects for tiger conservation have never looked better. WWF is working to make the Manas National Parks a core for the wider “Greater Manas Complex”, which includes other national parks, wildlife sanctuaries and forest reserves along both sides of the Bhutan-India border.
Also, two Korean pine forests, which are critical habitat for Amur tigers in the Russian Far East, have been saved from destructive logging. JSC Les Export, a wood harvesting and export company that specializes in parquet flooring, was denied the right to conduct a destructive logging operation by the local government following a three month campaign in Russia to save the forests. WWF applauds the local government for stepping up and taking action.
"By protecting these forests from logging, Russia has saved some of the last remaining strongholds for the Amur tiger, which numbers less than 500 in the wild," said Sybille Klenzendorf, Managing Director of WWF’s Species Conservation Program.

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.
