Tigers are endangered for two reasons... (1) humans are still using their skins for fur coats and (2) humans are destroying their natural environment ! (and we're supposedto be the most intelligent species on the planet !)

The biggest threat to tigers are poachers, who sell the tiger's body parts for use in fake oriental medicines.

Much habitat has been spared now, and the problem is to find enough tigers to fill the empty spaces.
