The increase in population comes from a range of factors, including enhanced protections of the animals and improved surveying techniques. The overall increase is due to larger tiger populations in India, Russia, Nepal and Bhutan. The threats to the tiger population come from illegal wildlife trade and poachers. One of the best ways to do this is by not inadvertently supporting the illegal wildlife trade when you travel to foreign countries.If you are in a market and you are seeing what is claimed to be tiger products, don’t purchase them. There is only one place where those tiger products should be, and that’s in a tiger.

Calvin & Hobbs a perfect way to acknowledge this positive event. Well done Steve Breen.
Now how about all the other animals being killed for sport & or body parts, or in near extinction due to loss of habitat?
