Tigers of the High Himalayas

[Charger01]

So I attended the Bhutan tiger conservation webinar 

It was mainly about what steps they have taken to conserve tiger population and mitigate human-wildlife conflicts

 Wild dogs and Tigers are a big reason for dwindling livestock in Bhutan. They are forced to hunt livestock because of lack of natural prey. 

There are many conservation areas in whole of Bhutan right now and multiple corridors. 

   

Overall, thanks to the forest cover in and around the country, there is a lot of scope for future tiger conservation

   

According to their latest survey, in the south of the country, an average Tigress range is 20 sq. km and for a male is 80 sq. km. In the north of the country, its very different. Its 80 sq. km for females and almost 200 sq. km for males. 

Also, the highest altitude for tigers ever recorded was from Bhutan, at 4600m above sea level. Tigers here regularly go at higher altitudes. 

Current population estimates give around 100 tigers, and with one of the biggest live breeding population of 40-60 females. 

I did ask question about genetics and morphology of these tigers and it was saying that Mr. Tempa wanted to answer my question but the webinar was ended right there.
