Sunda Tiger

Facts

This subspecies was once prevalent in numerous regions of Indonesia's Sunda islands. Now that tigers in Java and Bali are extinct, the only remaining Sunda tigers can be found in Sumatra.

Website

STATUS: Critically Endangered

POPULATION: Less than 400

SCIENTIFIC NAME: Panthera tigris sondaica

WEIGHT: 165–308 pounds

HABITATS: Tropical broadleaf evergreen forests, freshwater swamp forests and peat swamps

Sunda tigers are identified by their orange coats with thick black stripes. The last of the Sunda island tigers—estimated to be fewer than 400 today—are clinging to life in the island of Sumatra's remnant forest patches. Deforestation is accelerating, and poaching is common, so this magnificent species, like its Javan and Balinese brethren, may go extinct.

Anyone found shooting tigers in Indonesia might face jail time and hefty penalties. Despite improved efforts in tiger conservation, such as boosting law enforcement and antipoaching capabilities, there is still a significant market for tiger parts and goods in Sumatra and other regions of Asia. Poaching is a constant threat to Sunda tigers, which are rapidly losing their habitat and prey.

Why They Matter

Sumatra is the only site in the world where tigers, rhinos, orangutans, and elephants coexist in the wild. The Sunda tiger's presence is a good indicator of a forest's health and biodiversity. Many other animals, including humans, benefit from the protection of tigers and their habitat.

Threats

Illegal Wildlife Trade

In Sumatra, the majority of tigers are murdered for commercial reasons. Poaching for trade, according to TRAFFIC, the global wildlife trade monitoring network, is responsible for about 80% of estimated Sumatran tiger deaths, or at least 40 animals each year.

Despite increased conservation and protection measures in some parts of Sumatra, as well as some success in reducing tiger bone markets, there is no indication that tiger poaching has decreased dramatically since the early 1990s.

Human Wildlife Conflict

Tiger dispersal in search of their territory, as well as habitat deterioration, pulls tigers out of protected regions and into human-occupied areas, where they are more likely to encounter humans. Human-tiger conflict is a severe problem in Sumatra, as it is in other regions of the tiger's habitat. Tigers have killed or injured people, and livestock has been stolen. Tigers may be killed as a result of villagers' retaliation.

Habitat Loss

Clearing for agriculture (especially oil palm), plantations, and habitation has severely impacted the Sumatran tiger's habitat. Illegal timber harvesting and forest conversion are out of control in several regions of the island. The island's forest cover decreased from 58 percent to 26 percent between 1985 and 2014. Even protected locations are not immune to difficulties. Furthermore, forest conversion has separated national parks, as well as populations of species like tigers that require extensive territories for nesting, feeding, and dispersal.

Get to know the Patreon Token

The Patreon Token is a cryptocurrency created by three pet-friendly crypto fans to create support for the animal welfare and conservation organizations they love, anytime, anywhere. The Patreon Token was created on December 01, 2021. It is made of 88 million pieces and each cryptocurrency can be divided into 8 decimal places.

Our goal

Our team will distribute a minimum of 80 million PTRN tokens to various aid organizations. This means that we want to send 8,000 tokens for free to at least 10,000 animal welfare and conservation organizations, which can be sold to generate revenue. The remaining 8 million tokens will be used to develop to our project. The most important thing for us is that all animal welfare and conservation organizations on the planet can be easily and instantly supported by everyone, wherever they live or stay in the world.

An orangutan in Indonesia has been observed appearing to treat a wound with a medicinal tropical plant – the latest example of how some animals attempt to soothe their own ills with remedies found in the wild. Scientists saw the Sumatran orangutan named Rakus pluck and chew up leaves of a medicinal plant used by people throughout Southeast Asia to treat pain and inflammation. The adult male then used his fingers to apply the plant juices to an injury on the right cheek. Afterwards, he pressed the chewed plant to cover the open wound like a makeshift bandage, according to a study in Scientific Reports that was released on Thursday.

Hello! I'm so proud to finally present you the artwork with all the Perissodactyla order including its subspecies (Rhinos, Tapirs, and Horses). Took me more than a year to finish but I am really happy with the result. The artwork includes the common name, its Latin name, and its conservation status. 46 animals in total of which 10 are sadly already extinct.

Here is the link in case you are interested:https://www.inprnt.com/.../all-perissodactyla-species.../

Thank you for your support!

Video footage of Sumatran rhinoceros "Delilah", granddaughter of the Cincinnati Zoo's "Emi" and "Ipuh", alongside her calf. The little male was born on November 25th, 2023, at the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary in Way Kambas National Park. There are likely no more than 50 Sumatran rhinos left in the wild, and only 11 in captivity.
