Animals. This week we present his article on global threats to wild tiger populations—including habitat degradation and loss, hunting by humans, and the international black market in tiger parts and products made from them.

On June 9, 2008, in Washington, D.C., flanked by celebrities including Harrison Ford and Bo Derek, World Bank President Robert Zoellick announced plans for a global tiger initiative intended to assist in stopping the precipitous global decline in wild tiger numbers and ensure a future for the species. Said Zoellick, “The crisis facing tigers overwhelms local capabilities and transcends national boundaries. This is a problem that cannot be handled by individual nations alone. It requires an alliance of strong local commitment backed by deep international support.”

It is popularly thought that a century ago, 100,000 of these magnificent animals roamed freely in their native habitat. Today a pitiful 4,000 individuals cling to survival. And the population trends are pointed in an alarming downward direction. In fact, three of the nine historically occurring tiger subspecies have already gone extinct (the Bali tiger, Caspian tiger, and Javan tiger). Without a concerted global effort—a successful one—my children may know of the species only through historical accounts of their presence on Earth. Such a catastrophe would represent a monumental and embarrassing failure in global conservation vision.
