On the other hand their numbers are not as high as the outdated pugmark census indicates ( 300 in India and 600 in Bangladesh) their actual numbers can be lower than 100 in India and lower than 200 in Bangladesh, doubling these numbers is possible.
The males from Mukherjee and Mallick appeared to be in good health, the females from Adam Barlow's study were in poor health yet his examination of skulls of Sunderban tigers suggest they are likely to be smaller than Sumatran tigers, more data is needed

The numbers of tigers in this area has been controversial. Government census put ridiculously high figures while scientists like Dr Karanth found that the population there is lower than 100 in India, like you mention. Sadly, there is not a true large-scaled scientific census in the entire area, just estimations.

@GuateGojira Sorry to dig up an old post but this is actually not true, government data never really gave such ridiculous numbers.

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.
