These beautiful large cats must be protected in their specially created natural wildlife environments by the combined efforts of local organizations and respective country governments so that they are of no threat to villages or to vulnerable food chains.
The tigers are worth the time and finances to prevent them from illegal trade in body parts and from poaching.
Education efforts must be set in place to deter poaching and illegal trade and must begin to reach all age groups for most effect.
