The article notes wild tiger numbers have fallen from about 100000 to 5000-7000, with 36 cat species existing and only domestic cats thriving. It covers tiger fossils, threats from hunters and habitat loss, cub mortality, cub vulnerability to predators and porcupines, and cub care needs until 18 months to two years old.
Experts warn tigers now inhabit about 160 areas but host too few adults per habitat. A healthy population requires 400 to 500 tigers with at least 50 breeding females in one area, while most habitats are too small and counting tigers is difficult. Tigers live hidden in forests or tall grasses, avoiding detection, and rely on large prey and undisturbed land. Threats include hunting for traditional medicines and human encroachment, prompting conservation groups to push alternatives and habitat protection.
