But, in truth, tigers are disappearing in the wild. Just a century ago, an estimated 100,000 tigers inhabited the forests of Asia. Now scarcely 6,000 remain, and soon this magnificent cat may only exist in zoos.
Do tigers have a chance? Only if people living near reserves believe that a live tiger is more precious than a dead one.
