Abstract With less than 3200 wild tigers in 2010, the heads of 13 tiger-range countries committed to doubling the global population of wild tigers by 2022. This goal represents the highest level of ambition and commitment required to turn the tide for tigers in the wild.

In this study, we assess the recovery potential of 18 sites identified under WWF’s Tigers Alive Initiative. are extended. https://conservewildcats.org/recovery-planning-towards-doubling-wild-tiger/
