TIGER *dedicated to the guards who put their life on the line to protect the tiger and its habitat. Wild Tiger numbers BENGAL TIGER= 1,300-2,000 AMUR/ SIBERIAN TIGER= 400-500 INDOCHINESE TIGER= 700-1,300 SUMATRAN TIGER= 250-300 MALAYAN TIGER= 400-600 SOUTH CHINA TIGER= 10? Total Tiger captive numbers 10,000 +/- in various situations. (many are Amur/Bengal mixed) WHAT I THINK WILL SAVE THE TIGER: Letting U.S. corporations know that we want to be aware where our resources like Palm Oil come from. Our government letting China know we are unhappy with their wildlife policies (namely tiger parts used in traditional medicine) and poor protection of their endangered animals. Better protection for the tigers in their native habitats and their prey species by properly arming and funding the anti-poaching units, and better regulations allowing them to search for illegal trade. www.iucn.org www.wwf.org www.cawtglobal.org www.wpsi-india.org www.defenders.org www.savethetigerfund.org
