| Has the tiger a future in India? | |
| 2004 The Rhino Foundation for nature in NE India Newsletter (6): 9-12 | |
The Indian subcontinent, including India, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh, is home to more tigers than any other area in Asia, and of more than half of all the estimated surviving tigers, which may number between 5,000 and 7,000. Most of the tigers are in India, but those in Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh are still part of the "Indian" population. Given their number, the subcontinent's tigers would appear to have the best probability for long-term survival. However, they are a subject to a number of serious threats, and there is an urgent need for action. |
