Listed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List since 2008, the Bengal Tiger is a Panthera tigris tigris population in the Indian subcontinent. Threatened by events like poaching and fragmentation of habitat, it is reported to be fewer than 2,500 individuals by 2011. The National animal of India - the Royal Bengal Tiger, ranks among the biggest wild cats alive today. Various projects have been launched to save them. This majestic, ferocious creature is a major tourist attraction of the Sundarban mangroves. Although they are born killers, they are caring towards females and children. Their stripes help them stay camouflaged among trees and shrubs.
