International Tiger Day is celebrated annually on July 29. The tiger enjoys the reputation of being the largest of the world’s big cats.
International Tiger Day is celebrated across the globe so that all of us can raise awareness for tiger conservation.
The day aims to build a worldwide system that will be dedicated to protecting tigers and their natural habitats.
International Tiger Day was first celebrated in 2010 after it was found that 97% of all wild tigers had disappeared in the last century, with about only 3,000 of them remaining.
Representatives from 13 different countries attended the summit and rallied together to create a new initiative, Tx2. The aim of the initiative was to double the numbers of tigers living in the wild.
Many international organizations such as the WWF, the IFAW, and the Smithsonian Institute also observe International Tiger Day.
