India Tiger census 2011 show 15% rise in population

In India the tiger counts at 1,706... In which there is an increase of 12% growth. According to the 2010 tiger census, there are approximately 1,706 of the big cats in the country, which includes about 70 in the marshes of the Sunderbans, which have never been scientifically surveyed before. The 2006 census had estimated that there were 1,411 tigers, without including any from the Sunderbans.

Thirty per cent of the tiger population lives in areas outside the government's reserve.

The sad fact is that Tiger living areas shrunk from 9 million hectares to less than 7.5 million hectares over the last four years, said Environment and Forests Minister Jairam Ramesh.

In the state wise data Madhya Pradesh has 213 and Andhra Pradesh has 65. These two states is the lowest compared to the other states the population is been reduced. And text comes the stable population in the states of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgar, Jarkhand, Rajastan, Orisa, Mizoram, WestBengal and Kerala. The population is been increasing in Tamil Nadu, Mahastra, Uttatakhand, Assam and Karnataka...

The of tiger from 1411 to 1706 is not happy news for the wild life lowers but thing to be known is that the increase in the tiger population in a certain period and reduce in some time is not a permanent increase in tiger population. The increase in the year 2011 and if the next 2 decades results is also in the upper tend of increase in tiger population . Then its true that we are getting back the TIGERS..
