The age old tradition of hunting tigers to establish human valor over the fiercely free spirited animals have been stopped, at least partially, with strict laws but still a lot needs to be done for conserving tigers. The number of tigers in India has come down to a meager 1411 or probably even less. There was a time when the jungles were full of the fiery creatures but human activities and scarcity of trees have made it difficult for the tigers to survive. Many tiger reserve forests have been established and talks are going on for more of them.
