In the '70s, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) began a programme called Operation Tiger. However,it was India who led the world in efforts to save the tiger. Project Tiger was started by the government of India in 1972 to save the endangered tiger species in the country. Today,, more than 37000 km are covered by these project tiger areas where guards protect the area and try to stop tiger hunters Fortunately, there is still hope for the tiger. We can support an environmental group that looks,after tigers, like the Environment Agency. By working together, we can protect tigers and their habits from the,danger of disappearing forever.
