Recovery planning towards doubling wild tiger Panthera tigris numbers: Detailing 18 recovery sites from across the range
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 progress towards this goal requires that we set site-specific recovery targets and timelines
that are ecologically realistic. In this study, we assess the recovery potential of 18 sites
identified under WWF’s Tigers Alive Initiative. are extended.
