The tiger is one of the most iconic and majestic animals on the planet. But it is also one of the most endangered. In the past century, the tiger population has plummeted by more than 95%. Today, there are only an estimated 3,900 wild tigers left in the world.

The main threats to tigers are habitat loss, poaching, and climate change. Habitat loss is the biggest threat, as tigers need large areas of forest to roam and hunt. Poaching is also a major problem, as tigers are killed for their fur, bones, and other body parts. Climate change is also a threat, as it is causing the tiger's habitat to change and become less suitable for them.

The fight to save the tiger is a complex and challenging one. But it is a fight that must be won. Tigers are a vital part of the ecosystem, and they play an important role in maintaining the balance of nature. They are also a symbol of hope and resilience. If we can save the tiger, we can save other endangered species and protect our planet for future generations.

Tiger On The Brink is a powerful and inspiring book that tells the story of the fight to save the wild tiger. Author John Vaillant takes readers on a journey into the heart of the tiger's world, from the rainforests of Sumatra to the grasslands of India. Along the way, we meet the people who are working tirelessly to protect these magnificent animals.

Tiger On The Brink is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of the wild tiger. It is a book that will open your eyes to the challenges facing these animals and inspire you to take action to help them.
