World observing International Tiger Day

The International Tiger Day is being observed today across the globe.

International Tiger Day is celebrated every year on July 29.

The Day is being celebrated with a commitment “Tiger Conservation for a healthy ecosystem.”

President Bidhya Devi Bhandari has said that the day would help to mitigate the conflict between human and tigers.

International Tiger Day was first celebrated in 2010 after it was found that 97% of all wild tigers had disappeared in the last century.

The day is celebrated to raise awareness of the risks and challenges that tigers confront across the world.
