The Royal Bengal Tiger is Bangladeshi National Animal and probably the most recognizable Animal from Bangladesh & India, The Royal Bengal Tiger more commonly known the Indian & Bengali tigers. Over many centuries they have become an important part of Indian tradition and lore. Even though Bengal Tigers are at the top of their ecosystem they are now an endangered species with a recorded tiger population of only 1,411 in 2008 as compared to 3,500 in the 1990’s with this figure drastically dropping each year. The primary reason attributed to this increasing drop in numbers is poaching for tiger skins and bones resulting in a total or almost wipe out of tigers in many Indian Wildlife Tiger Reserves. The Bengal Tiger is the most common tiger subspecies, living in a variety of habitats primarily found in India, Bangladesh and also Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar and southern Tibet. Bengal Tigers are at the top of their ecosystem and play an active role in maintaining the delicate balance of India’s threatened natural fauna and flora. They prey upon a variety of animals including wild boar, sambar, barasingha, nilgai, gaur and water buffalo though the spotted dear, also known as chital, forms the bulk of their diet. At times smaller animals including hares, peacocks, langurs and monkeys are also consumed. Extremely strong, Bengal Tigers are known to attack and kill the largest prey animals in India including the Asiatic Elephant and Rhinoceros. They are estimated to have the strength of twelve adult men and can carry a fully grown cow over a ten foot fence. The most untamed of India’s tigers reside in the largest natural delta on earth – the Sunderban forest of Bengal where the sacred river Ganges opens into the Bay of Bengal. An estimated near three hundred and five hundred tigers reside on India and Bangladesh’s side of this vast mangrove wetland. Despite their fearsome reputation, most tigers avoid humans; however, a few do become dangerous maneaters. These animals are often sick and unable to hunt normally, or live in an area where their traditional prey has vanished. Fast Facts About The Indian Tiger Type: Mammal Diet: Carnivore Average lifespan in the wild: 8 to 10 years Size: Head and body, 5 to 6 ft (1.5 to 1.8 m); Tail, 2 to 3 ft (0.6 to 0.9 m) Weight: 240 to 500 lbs (109 to 227 kg) Did you know?

It has become one of the most successful wildlife conservation ventures. The project aims at tiger conservation in specially constituted tiger reserves representative of various bio geographical regions throughout India. It strives to maintain a viable tiger population in their natural environment. Like project tiger there a number of Tiger conservation programs by various bodies around the world like the WWF (World Wildlife Fund or World Wide Fund For Nature). You won’t have to look hard to find one. Just read up on the organizations before to make sure your money or efforts are going to be used correctly.
