Tigers are apex predators of regions with rich biodiversity. They regulate herbivore populations and maintain the balance of entire ecosystems. The tiger is also India’s national animal and has immense cultural significance for many communities around the country. Tigers are essential for preserving the health of forests, which are crucial to fighting climate change.
But tigers in India face an uncertain future. Their habitats are disappearing and degrading at an alarming rate. As their home gets fragmented, tigers are forced into closer contact with people. This often leads to heartbreaking losses.
But there is hope.
WWF-India is working on the ground every day—protecting tigers, conserving vital habitats and corridors, helping communities prevent human-wildlife conflict and curbing illegal wildlife trade.
Your donation will make you a protector of India’s national animal.
Your support will help WWF-India:
Conduct research and monitoring to understanding tiger movement within and outside protected areas, which is crucial to tiger conservation.
Mitigate human-wildlife conflict and promote peaceful coexistence by working with communities through a response system called Bagh Mitras. These are local volunteers who collect information on tiger presence in farmlands and alert authorities.
Provide immediate financial support to people who lose cattle to tiger attacks. This interim relief curbs retaliatory killing of tigers. In 2023 alone, 1,364 people benefitted from this scheme.
Conserve corridors, which connect protected habitats and enable safe tiger movement. Corridors are often made up of agricultural lands, habitat patches and human settlements, lacking the protection of tiger reserves. WWF-India is working to advance connectivity conservation.
Monitor illegal wildlife trade of tiger parts and provide information for effective conservation policies. WWF-India conducts regular capacity-building programmes to improve understanding of wildlife laws and their implications.
