This is a photo-manipulation, not a painting. Credits linked at the bottom of the description.

At the beginning of the 20th century, there were likely 100,000 tigers in the wild. Today, there are fewer than 5,000. There are more tigers in captivity now than in the wild.

Three of the nine tiger subspecies are extinct: the Javan, the Bali, and the Caspian. A fourth subspecies, the South Chinese, is believed to be extirpated in the wild. The remaining members of this subspecies are kept in captivity, but may not contain the genetic diversity needed to survive.

For more information on tigers, tiger conservation, and things you can do to help what is arguably world's most beautiful apex predator, please check out Save the Tiger Fund's website here: [link]

Thanks! Ha ha, that is a wonderful movie. I have it on DVD and like to watch it from time to time. The human actors are not so great, but the tigers are just beautiful. :)

That's so pretty... and so sad. I love tigers and I hope we can save them.
