Tiger Farming: Trading In Extinction


The tiger is an endangered species. Poaching for fur and body parts and destruction of habitat have simultaneously greatly reduced tiger populations in the wild. In the last 100 years, we have lost 97% of all wild tiger in the world. Instead of 100,000, as few as 3,000 live in the wild today.

With out of control breeding of captive tigers stimulating demand for their parts and products across Asia, do wild tigers stand a chance?
