Cute tiger cubs sniff WWF camera trap

WWF camera trap yields first-time film of tigress and cubs in Sumatra, Indonesia. See more: panda.org Estimates indicate that the world tiger population has fallen by over 95% since the turn of the 20th century down to the current estimate of around 3200 inidividuals. Three subspecies Bali, Javan and Caspian tigers were extinct by the 1980s. 2010 is the Year of the Tiger in the Chinese calendar. It could also be the last opportunity to save the species in the wild.

    Did you know that today there are more tigers “behind bars” in zoos and private captivity then in the wild?

    WWF estimates that only 3200 tigers survive today in their habitat.

    2010 is the year of the Tiger in the chinese calendar. It is also the year we must fight to guarantee that tigers will still exist in nature.

    And if you are curious, this video was shot by WWF’s team using a hidden camera.

    Can you inmagine those tigers looking very supprised -Oh, was it all filmed by a “hidden” camera!- as it is obvious they noticed the camera straight away.
    I think the beauty in this shot is in the reaction of the tigers towards the camera. I would love to see what they are doing to the microphone. According to the sounds they’re either trying to eat it or leave their sent on it.

    Verschiedene Unterarten des Tigers scheinen bereits ausgerottet zu sein. Verantwortlich ist neben der Zerstörung ihres Lebensraumes vor allem die Jagd auf sie. Früher war die Trophäenjagd auf Tiger in Mode – es wurden regelrechte Treibjagden veranstaltet. Heute sind Tiger in ihrem gesamten Lebensraum geschützt. Unterbinden kann dies die Jagd auf sie aber leider nicht. So hat z.B. die Wilderei in den letzten Jahren wieder verstärkt zugenommen.

    Es scheint auch an politischem Willen zu mangeln. Und solange die traditionelle chinesische Medizin Tigerprodukte immer noch nachfragt, ist der Handel mit gewilderten Tigern nach wie vor lukrativ.
