The official Tiger Census of 2010 gave a number of 70 Tigers in the Sundarbans, 2014, it was 76, 2018 it was 88.

I think those numbers are accurate though you may be the better person to make that judgement but these are the actual numbers given by the government from the Tiger census.

Here is a table below which represents the government census data from all the previous Tiger census conducted.

In that post of 2015 I was not talking about the census of 2010, but about all the previous estimations showed by the Goverment (because the do) and popularized by the press. And I have the books were Dr Karanth state this.

Pugmark census are rubish, the myth that Sundarbans tiger population is among the largest is just that, a myth. And all this was popularized by the Government, specially in the last days of Project Tiger and before the dissaster of Sariska and Panna. Reply
