As of the most recent data available, the global wild tiger population has shown signs of recovery, but the species still faces significant threats with only around 4,500 remaining in the wild.
Global Tiger Day, also known as International Tiger Day, is celebrated annually on 29th July. This day was created following the meeting of the heads of tiger range states during Year of the Tiger in 2010. The day aims to raise awareness about the critical decline in wild tiger populations and encourage tiger conservation efforts.
