Human-tiger conflict in Sundarban Tiger Reserve and its mitigation through management strategies in India
2014  Tigerpaper (41): 1-9

The tiger was declared a threatened species facing extinction in 1969 and at that time the approximate number surviving in the world was 10,000. In 1976, international trade in tigers and their body parts was banned with placement of tigers in Appendix - I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Flora & Fauna (CITES). Since then, every tiger range country (TRC) has banned the hunting of tigers and created protected areas (PAs) in tiger habitats, but the tiger remains endangered on the IUCN Red List of threatened species.
