Introduction

Its unique features and royal look represents the animal dome of India. Though lion are also found in India but the first position goes to Tiger that has been crowned as king of Indian forest. The dangerous predator designation of the earth at present goes to the most majestic animal the royal Bengal tiger. In India the government has banned killing and poaching such animal.

National animal of India

It has become the national animal of India since 1972. Due to its terrific look and agility while hunting made it our national pride. It stands in number one position among all wild and pet animals in India. Its unique color skin and strong teeth has become its enemy. Because these body parts have heavy demand in foreign. So many hunters started killing and selling tiger skin and teeth to earn heavy lump sum. Accordingly the number of tiger has been reduced day to day gradually in India. Hence to prevent poaching and illegal hunting of tiger the Indian government has adopted and declared the animal as national animal of India. Apart from it our government has arranged and created many reservoirs for tiger rearing and preventing the endangered species. Similipal, Ranthambor, and Kajiranga are some of well known places where tiger reservoirs are found.


   

Conclusion

Tiger is not only a wild animal but also it is our national property. Every year many tourists visit India to see tigers in zoo. They play an important role in our environment by killing herbivorous animals. Otherwise there would be thrive of animals like deer, wild beast, zebra, Giraffe, antelope and other herbivorous animals etc. Now it is our duty to coordinate our government regarding tiger save project. Thank you.
