Then the tiger goes after the villagers’ cowsand goats, and so it becomes the hunted. Another issue with reduced habitat is that the tigers will not cross openland, so they cannot get to isolated areas of the forest to breed with other tigers.   31 Most countries have laws that prohibit the hunting and trade of tigers, but the temptation for localpoachers is great. It costs practically nothing to kill a tiger, but a poor villager can earn up to 60 times his dailyearnings by trapping one. This money may guarantee the survival of his family. The dead tiger is handed over to amiddleman who then often smuggles it abroad. Its fur may end up hanging on a wall and its bones may be usedfor medicinal purposes.  One country that has taken action against illegal hunting is China. 32 In India, it has been suggestedthat tigers be specially bred on farms and these could be used by the pharmaceutical industry, thereby saving thewild ones. 33 So they would prefer to buy a “pure wild tiger” than a farmed one. There is no clear solutionto saving the tiger, but there is still a demand. Only when we can persuade the wealthy not to buy tiger productswill the poor stop killing them.
