Well the Melbourne Zoo has a breeding program to help keep them from extinction and the WWF ( World Wildlife Foundation) is helping all wildlife including Tigers. Hope that helps.
There are about thousands of tigers in captivity around the world - more than there are tigers in the wild. Estimates in the US put the captive tiger population at between 5,000 and 10,000. In China, approximately 5,000 tigers are kept in squalid conditions, to be bred for their parts for an illegal market.
There are only about 200 Albino/White Tigers left in the world.
tigers are predators. this means that they help stabilize the number of preys such as the herbivores which tigers usually eat. if there were no tigers perhaps herbivores would become dominant and there will be imbalance in nature because they usually eat all the trees and grasses
Tigers are native only to Asia, except for those in captivity, that is where they are found.
There are 1144 altogether. 70% of these are in captivity.

There are several hundred in captivity around the world. None in the wild for years.

tiger in wild but normal cats the tabby cat It takes place where, in captivity, tiger but in the wild a lion.
Tigers and lions inhabit different parts of the world, and the only contact they would have would be in captivity. Tigers are larger and more powerful, but not likely they would see each other as prey.
