It is too late to prevent the extinction of this species of tiger. Caspian tigers, which are also known as Persian Tigers, have the Taxonomic classification name of Panthera Tigris virgata. In their native Iran, they were also called Hyrcanian or Turan tigers.
Unfortunately, they were declared extinct around 1980. It is in dispute when the last Caspian tiger died, but numerous dates have been claimed or given in various documents. They include most often dates in the 1950s, and specifically 1959. Others claim to have seen the last specimen die in 1979-1980. Still other reports claim that the last one was killed in 1997. In any case, they are currently declared extinct.
