Forced into scattered, small refuges

The rare Indochinese tiger is widely dispersed throughout six countries – Thailand, Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Vietnam.

Although extensive habitat is available in some places, rapid development is fragmenting habitats and forcing tigers into scattered, small refuges. Poaching is also a threat.
