solution is to stop

educating people about the
importance of tiger
conservation is also very
important. This will increase
public awareness of the
threats facing tigers and help
reduce demand for tiger
parts. Finally, governments
should introduce stricter laws
and harsher punishments to
stop poachers from killing
and selling tiger parts.
In conclusion, there are
several threats facing tigers.
Therefore, we recommend
that governments and
organisations should act
now so that tigers can be
saved.
