TIGER
Tigers rely primarily on sight and sound rather than
smell.
A tiger can consume up to 88 pounds of meat at one
time.
On average, tigers give birth to 2-3 cubs every 2-2.5
years.
If all the cubs in one litter die, a second litter may be
produced within 5 months.
Tigers are Apex Predators.
They are territorial.
TIGER
Wild tiger numbers are at an all-time low.
We have lost 97% of wild tigers in just
over a century. Tigers may be one of the
most revered animals, but they are also
vulnerable to extinction. As few as 3,200
exist in the wild today.

EYE IN THE SKY!!!!!
“Wildlife Monitoring” - Anti Poaching Patrols
“ Eye In The Sky ”- Access into previously unreachable areas and a safe
view of illegal activities on the ground.
“The GPS-enabled FPV Raptor model planes”- They film the ground
below with a still or video camera and can fly a pre-programmed route of
about 18 miles at a maximum elevation of 650 feet for up to 50 minutes.
The battery can be recharged in about half an hour. The devices are also
low cost an important factor for a developing country like Nepal.

WWF Helps Rangers on the Frontlines
WWF provided two UAVs to Nepal in order to combat illegal activities like
poaching and logging.
WWF works with the Government of Nepal and local communities to protect
and connect wildlife habitats and help people benefit from nature. The UAV
training was conducted in Bardia National Park which recently saw a positive
increase in its tiger population.
WWF is excited by the potential of technologies like UAVs to aid rangers on
the frontline

TIGER AGENDA - 2014
It has been estimated that in the beginning of this century the
population of Royal Bengal Tigers in our country was close to 40,000
It came down to a mere 2,500 by the year 1982.
Due to this the Indian Wildlife Board initiated project to save the
tigers from extinction called The Project Tiger.
The budgetary provision of the Government of India during 1973
was only Rs. 23 million, which has increased to 185.02 crore for
Project Tiger.
PROJECT TIGER
PROJECT TIGERProject Tiger was first launched at the Corbett National Park in
Uttaranchal.
That were Manas, Bandipur, Ranthambore, Palamau, Similipal,
Corbett, Kanha, Melghta, and Sundarbans.
National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA), a statutory body
under the Ministry of Environment and Forests, was set up for the
protection of Tigers in the country.
PRINCIPLE GUIDELINES ON TIGER RESERVES Put restrictions on the habitat management to only
repair those parts which have been damaged due to the
human and other disturbances.
Carrying out the research on the wildlife and floral
and faunal changes from time to time.
Elimination of all kind of human activities and biotic
disturbance from the core areas.
DANGER TO THE TIGER PARADISE
Poaching .
Shortage Of Prey.
Demand of Tiger's Bones.
Other Body Parts for the making of traditional
medicines.
Increasing human activities in the jungles.
The loss of natural habitats.

NCERT-SOURCE CLASS-9Hunting of big game became a sport. In India, hunting of tigers and other animals had been part of the culture of
the court and nobility for centuries. Many Mughal paintings show princes and emperors enjoying a hunt. But
under colonial rule the scale of hunting increased to such an extent that various species became almost extinct .
The British saw large animals as signs of a wild, primitive and savage society. They believed that by killing
dangerous animals the British would civilize India. They gave rewards for the killing of tigers, wolves and other
large animals on the grounds that they posed a threat to cultivators. 0ver 80,000 tigers, 150,000 leopards and
200,000 wolves were killed for reward in the period 1875-1925. Gradually, the tiger came to be seen as a sporting
trophy. The Maharaja of Sarguja alone shot 1,157 tigers and 2,000 leopards up to 1957. A British administrator,
George Yule, killed 400 tigers. Initially certain areas of forests were reserved for hunting. Only much later did
environmentalists and conservators begin to argue that all these species of animals needed to be protected, and
not killed.
