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.
