Problem

Despite international actions to ban most trade in tiger skins and parts, poaching of these majestic felines for their hides continues. Recently, hundreds of Tibetans were seen wearing skins bought within the last two years from Indian poachers. Some people even want to resume trade in tiger bone for use in traditional Chinese medicines. Illegal logging is also destroying vital forest habitat that tigers and cubs need to survive.
