The Amur tiger is endangered (there's fewer than 500 left), the Sumatran tiger, the Siberian tiger (also fewer than 500 left), the Bengal tiger, the Malayan tiger, the Indochinese tiger and the South China tiger. Unfortunately, there are only 7 species of tigers left and they are all endangered.

There are many reasons why they are endangered but the main reasons are because of habitat loss (due to logging or road building) or illegal hunting for their pelts, meat and other body parts used for folk medicines.

There are about 3,200 endangered tigers remaining in the wild.

Sorry I gave such a long answer, I tend to give more information then needed. Hope this helped!
