According to
WWF, the tiger population in the wild has recovered and there are now 5,574 tigers are left in the world in the wild.
Tigers are globally listed as "Endangered" on the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species.
The Malayan and Sumatran sub-species are listed as 'Critically Endangered.' Wild tigers are hunted to meet the demands of the $20 billion a year illegal wildlife market.
Tigers are mostly nocturnal (more active at night) and are ambush predators that rely on the camouflage their stripes provide to stalk prey.
Tigers use their body weight to knock prey to the ground and kill with a bite to the neck.
They are also very good swimmers and have been known to drown their prey.
