About Tigers
—Rudyard Kipling,The Jungle Book Tigers are the largest feline species, and native to much of Asia, ranging from the Siberian tiger of the frigidRussian Far Eastto the Malayan tiger of the hot and humid tropics inSoutheast Asia. They are apex predators. In 1900, the global tiger population was estimated to have been at 100,000, which declined to around 3,200 in 2010. Since then, due to conservation efforts the number of tigers in the wild has steadily increased to just under 4,000. Despite this, the tiger is still critically endangered, with many populations and subspecies vulnerable to habitat fragmentation and poaching.
