Tigers are important to the ecosystem by controlling the levels of other animals within the food chain.

So if a tiger eats 7 rabbits a day, which in turn eat 7 carrots a day; removing the tiger effectively increases the carrot yield. And this theory can be applied to what ever comes earlier on in the food chain.
