While large tracts of forest are often being cleared to make way for human settlement and agriculture, tiger habitats outside the protected areas are being heavily used for grazing and collecting forest products. That is why securing corridors and keeping land intact to link the protected areas needs major attention.
WWF's Tiger Programme aims to strike a balance between the conservation needs of tigers and the survival needs of humans, but in so doing, ecological and social challenges must be overcome.To fight the pressures of logging and land conversion, WWF is endeavouring to modify land-use policies and ensure sustainable resource management practices. We are also focusing on government and corporate responsibility to prevent encroachment into prime forest habitats.
