Just a few days back, I read somewhere that the royal tiger of our country is slowly turning into an endangered tiger as the number of mammals left in the whole country is going downwards at a very fast pace. India has one of the richest populations as well as species of tiger but many of the species of this animal have either gone extinct or have become endangered. This simply means that they are left very few and are on the verge of becoming extinct.
There are many reasons that this, one of the most attractive mammals of India has now become the endangered tiger. One of the major reasons is poaching which is hunting when this amazing animal is killed for personal benefit people kill these big cats to sell their skin so that they can earn money.
The other reasons are changes in the climate and environment, growing pollution, industrialization, and cutting down the forests which are their natural habitat. If all this continues at the same speed and nothing much is done to save them, then it is very much possible that this rich animal will never be seen again.
It is an extremely saddening situation that this animal is our national animal but it is on the list of species that are endangered and are on the verge of becoming extinct. It is high time that much is done to save these big cats. Quite a few tiger conservation projects have been initiated, such as Save Tiger, Project Tiger, and so on but this is not enough.
A huge amount of awareness must be spread around to make everyone aware of the real situation. It is the very time now that both the government of the country and the common man should join hands to save this beautiful royal mammal from becoming extinct.
