The colour yellow on this map represents the tiger’s historic range.

Red, represents the tiger’s current range.

Presently, this magestic animal can only be found in scattered parts of Asia and the Russian Far East. That equates to 7% of their historic range.

This is the reality.

The biggest threat tigers face are poaching and habitat loss/deforestation.

Poaching of tigers, is mainly driven by the demand for tiger parts for the use in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

However, till date, the medicinal benefits have not been scientifically proven.

Support our mission towards keeping tigers alive for generations to come.
