Description

Ten times more tigers are kept in captivity now than are able to live in the wild. K. Ullas Karanth has spent more than 50 years fighting to save wild tigers in India, their last surviving wild habitat, from extinction. He presents the tale of the tiger, highlighting its remarkable biology, crucial influence on Asia's natural ecosystems, and special place in the collective human imagination. Among Tigers is the story of how we wound up with fewer than 5,000 wild tigers, and how, with focused efforts, we can grow that population ten times or more in a few decades. In doing so, we would bring not only the world?s largest and most beloved feline back from the brink, but also save countless other species that share the tigers habitats from the freezing forests of Siberia to the tropics of India. Karanth shares the adventurous real-life story of his quest to save a species and, along the way, the hopeful realization that tiger conservation is a battle that can be won. Ultimately, the book is a roadmap showing us how to not only to save the greatest of great cats, but to bring it roaring back at numbers never before seen in our lifetimes.
