There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

This is also evidence that all the tigers in America AND Australia that claim to have Bengal tigers are wrong. It is also interesting to know that all the "Indochinese" tigers in zoos are in fact Malayan ones, this explain the very low weight figures for this tiger group in Slaght et al. (2005).
This other table show that only 8 specimens, apart from the 195 animals in managed zoos, are in other facilities, talking of the Bengal tigers of course:

All these tables came from the great book "Tigers of the World", version of 2010. It is available in Google Books, although only in a preview.
