Tigers

Tigers (panthera tigris), the largest of big cats, and some of the most endangered animals. Of the nine modern species of tiger three are extinct and all of the remaining six are endangered (the Bengal, the Indo-Chinese, the Sumatran, the Amur, the Siberian and the south china tiger). Why? Because of people. We have the largest "footprint" on our environment. If we hadn't destroyed their habitat and hunted them for their beautiful pelts all nine types would be alive and well.
You may think, people aren't to take the whole of the blame! Well, yes we can. People are very much to blame. We have endangered so many types of animals; the lions, both Asiatic and African, the leopards, the cheetahs, jaguars, and those are just big cats. What can we do? We can recycle, use less paper, conserve water, and use less harmful cleaning products. Maybe then the tigers numbers will start climbing the ladder of success.
