When is International Tiger Day?

On July 29th, International Tiger Day raises concerns about the declining numbers of the majority of the big cats' dwindling numbers. During meetings designed to promote a scheme for protecting and improving their natural habitats, global leaders honed in on the tiger.

International Tiger Day - July 29

100,000 tigers roamed Asia a hundred years ago. The estimated number brings the tiger population to fewer than 4,000 tigers in the wild today. One of the day's goals is to double that number by 2022. The Tx2 Initiative is part of the Tx2 Initiative.

The Tx2 Initiative, which raises over $350 million a year to help save tigers, saves tigers. Investigators and rangers who patrol for poachers are paid for their services. In addition, the fund also pays for the protection of tiger habitat, studies of their populations and movements, and even builds thousands of wildlife trail cameras.
