Our new Tigers Alive Annual Report 2025 is out! 🐅✨
Across Asia, communities, governments and partners are helping shape landscapes where tigers can thrive from tiger dispersal in Thailand and population recovery in India and Nepal, to community-led monitoring in Myanmar and Indigenous stewardship in Malaysia.
There’s still a long road ahead, but 2025 showed what’s possible when we work together for coexistence and recovery.

How do you count a tiger you rarely see? 🤔
Across Nepal's forests, trained teams deploy motion-sensor camera traps that quietly capture images of passing wildlife.
Each tiger's stripe pattern is unique — allowing scientists to identify individuals and being estimating population numbers.
This is conservation in action. 🐅
A world first...camera traps have filmed an Amur tigress with five (yes five!) cubs in Northeast China.
Wild Amur tigers typically give birth to one to four cubs, making five cubs an exceptionally rare occurrence even in regions with abundant prey.
WWF-China is supporting the government to protect this area by removing snares and partnering with local communities to reduce human-wildlife conflict.
China’s tiger population is estimated to be about 70 wild tigers, up from an all-time low of 20 individuals in 2010.
Proving that even the most endangered species can recover. What a way to start 2026 ✨

Here are 3 ways to solve the problem of tiger farms ✅
Tiger farms keep and breed tigers for trade, fuelling the illegal market and threatening wild populations.
Despite a global ban on breeding tigers for trade since 2007, the number of captive tigers has only grown – but there are solutions. Watch the video for three ways WWF and our partners are working to solve the problem of tiger farms.
Tiger farms should concern everyone and you can be part of the solution 🐅

From a tiny cub to a trailblazer 🐯 Meet Gamma, born in the wild of northern Thailand. Camera traps, set to monitor wildlife, began recording Gamma soon after his birth. But then he disappeared.
His journey? A 70km trek north from his birthplace to establish his own territory, proving that restored habitats and connected corridors work.

Fact of the day: There are more tigers in captivity in Asia than there are in the wild 🤯
Keeping track of over 8,900 captive tigers in Asia is critical to ensuring these tigers aren't illegally sold into the illegal wildlife trade, fuelling demand and putting wild tigers at risk.
To stop this, governments need to create national databases with identifiable details for every captive tiger. This makes it harder for facilities to “lose” tigers into the illegal trade and ensures accountability.
At the recent CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) Conference of Parties, countries agreed to enhanced reporting on all Asian big cats, which includes tigers, to track current trade trends, and identify what’s working and where more effort is needed. With improved data, governments can make better decisions and take stronger actions to end the illegal trade of tigers.
Tracking captive tigers is one of the keys to breaking the cycle of exploitation 🐅

Tiger farms are a threat to wild tigers. These are captive tiger facilities involved in the illegal tiger trade. They sometimes even claim to be helping tiger conservation, but they instead fuel the demand for tiger parts and products, putting wild populations at great risk.
At the recent CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) Conference of Parties, WWF and our partners successfully advocated for countries to keep a key rule: tigers should only be bred for conservation, never for trade. It was also agreed to set clearer actions for governments to shut down facilities linked to the illegal trade.

The first-ever IUCN Green Status of Species assessment for the #tiger reveals a century of decline, but also a story of resilience.
Despite being Threatened everywhere they remain, conservation has prevented even greater losses. Tiger numbers are rising for the first time in over 100 years.
This landmark assessment shows that with sustained conservation, community engagement and political will, tigers can recover across Asia.
