The Problem

Obviously you can conclude there is a problem among humans causing the effect of extinction. Poaching and illegal trade of parts is how is the main reason this great animal is becoming extinct. Every year about 1,800 tigers are killed each year. This is crazy obnoctious for the human society to think it's fine to kill this many tigers every year. But even worse, we sell the parts of tigers illegally for money. This is a problem that has to be fixed. There are more ways the tigers are losing their lives. Habitat loss has become a major effect to the cause of the brink of extinction. When us humans build something in a natural habitat of the tigers, we are taking away their food, water, and shelter. Those are the prime things everything that everyone and and everything needs to live. But we are taking this away.

What would Happen if tigers became extinct?

Now we wonder, what really would happen if tigers became extinct? If the tigers go extinct, the entire system would collapse. Yah, the whole world's system. Therefore, it's not just about saving this brilliant and intelligent animal. It is about making sure that we live a little longer too. As the forests are known to provide ecological services like clean air, water, pollination, regulation of temperature and more. So you can understand now how frustrating it seems for us to kill tigers, and only make the problems worse for us.

The Solution

There are ways that we can keep tigers alive and away from extinction. For people that right now are saying that you don't kill or live near tigers, there are still things you can do. For starters, recycle something. Pollution is also a big factor to habitat loss, so by making the ecosystem healthier, that is helping decrease the pollution, and detanning habitat loss.

If we do our part in saving tigers then others will follow, and tigers will hopefully not become extinct.
