Despite many laws and national parks protecting tigers, their habitats continue to be destroyed and they are still being hunted. (honest) speaking, tigers are among the most endangered species in the world nowadays. Altogether, there are no more than 5,000 tigers (leave) in the wild. Some think that the tiger is already to the point of (extinct) in the wild. There are many reasons for this, like habitat loss and hunting.
Actually, over the last few decades, a number of steps (take) to help preserve the tiger. The Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS)was set up to protect wildlife and their habitats in early 2000s. Today WCS is carrying out work in 53 nations across the world, protecting a great variety of species from butterflies to tigers. In 2010, WCS started Tigers Forever, aim was to increase the number of tigers in the world 50 percent in the next 10 years. (achieve) their goals, they are working together with not only governments other organizations to protect tigers and other wild species.
Right now the tiger population is increasing steadily under this program in India and in Far East Russia. Thanks to the hard work of WCS, these large cats have a (good) chance of survival in their natural environments than ever, not just in zoos.
