Save Tigers - Threats

Major Threats to Tigers

The future of tigers is under serious threat. Here are some of the biggest challenges they face:

• Poaching: Tigers are hunted illegally for their body parts, which are used in traditional medicine and other purposes.

• Habitat Loss: Destruction of forests and grasslands for agriculture, development, and other purposes reduces tiger habitat.

Human-Wildlife Conflict: As human populations grow, conflicts arise when tigers compete with humans for resources or prey on livestock.

These threats are interconnected and require a multi-pronged approach for conservation efforts to succeed.
