Hunting and humans taking over the countryside where they live.
All tigers are aggressive. They are a wild animal trying to survive in a shrinking area.
The bengal,like all big cats,is in grave danger mainly because of poaching and habitat destruction.Bengal tigers live in forests,and as the human population grows,they tend to move into areas where tigers live.This leads to conflicts,as the farmers livestock are taken by the tigers,and even the people themselves on occasion.The tigers are the losers in the end,as they are hunted down,just for doing what nature programmed them to do.
Albino tigers, often referred to as white tigers, are not a distinct species but rather a color variant of the Bengal tiger. They do not occur naturally in the wild due to their lack of camouflage, which makes them less likely to survive. As a result, there are no known albino tigers in the wild; they primarily exist in captivity, where selective breeding has produced them. In the wild, the population of Bengal tigers is critically endangered, but white tigers are not a naturally occurring part of that population.
five years ago it was about 5,500 to about 6000. But ive heard that it is shrinking fast so im unsure of what it is currently... must not be good though. that's the world tiger population by the way

there are 2301 Bengal tigers left in the world
What affects tiger population is getting shot for killing livestock and people, but almost the whole reason is because poachers want the tiger's beautiful fur or they just think it's fun.
The total population of wild tigers is around 5000-5500, of six subspecies.
to control the population so they don't take over.Tiger are an endangered species, so the only good reason to kill one is if he is eating on your leg.

The largest population of tigers is said to be found in India. The population is high enough to cause fear in the people because tigers walk the streets freely and sometimes cause harm. Tigers are endangered and the Bengal tiger is said to be the most important subspecies.
