It attracts a number of wildlife enthusiasts from all across the globe. In 2013 India has lost 63 of its wild tigers. This remarkable increase in tigers&#8217; population has given a huge smile to wildlife enthusiasts. But the good news is that according to the latest study on tiger population, deliver by India\u2019s National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) the population of Tigers had increased from 1,706 in 2011 to 2,226 in 2014 (i.e. more than 30 per cent in the past four years).This is such a phenomenal increase which is never seen before. NTCA issues Tiger census report in every three years. The latest tiger census figures according to NCTA is as follow STATE NUMBER OF TIGERS Karnataka 408 Uttarakhand 340 Madhya Pradesh 308 \u00a0Tamil Nadu \u00a0229 \u00a0Maharashtra \u00a0190 \u00a0Assam \u00a0167 \u00a0Kerala \u00a0136 \u00a0Uttar Pradesh \u00a0117 In 2006, Madhya Pradesh had topped but in 2014 Karnataka has the highest number of tigers. The main region occupies by tigers is the landscape of Shivalik-Gangetic Plains, Central Indian Landscape Complex, Eastern Ghats, Western Ghats, North-Eastern Hills and Bhramaputra Plains, and Sunderbans. Before a few years, there was not even a single tiger was left in the Sariska tiger reserve of Rajasthan. It was a matter of worries and a number of initiatives to protect the tigers, Lot of money and effort were spent on protecting the tiger habitats. And the result is reflected in the latest numbers, to 13, with 7 female tigers, 2 male tigers and 4 cubs. It is a &#8220;huge success story&#8221; said by Prakash Javadekar, the honorable Environment Minister. In the one hand the rate of Tiger\u2019s population is decreasing in the other countries of the world, at the same time in the other hand it is raising in India. The reason of this rising population of tiger in India is due to the combined efforts of forest officers, community and forest guards and a scientific approach. Prakash Javadekar, also state \u201cThat is why we want to create more tiger reserves. This is a proof of India\u2019s biodiversity and how we care for mitigating climate change. This is India\u2019s steps in the right direction, which the world will applaud\u201d. The reason of a great downfall in the number of tigers in the past is the Demands of the parts of the tiger\u2019s body on high price on the black market as it was believed that it has great medical values. Other reasons are human hunting, Habitat loss etc. The government of India has taken some strong steps and compliance it with some law, rule. Hunting and trading of Tiger parts are banned. Government also planned to create more grasslands and water storage in forest areas. In 2013, Supreme Court imposes the temporary ban of four months, on tourism in national parks where tigers live."}
