Tiger Body Parts Seized In Tamil Nadu

The Wildlife (Protection) Act of 1972 includes the Bengal tiger in Schedule I, which provides the species with the highest level of protection. Wildlife SOS informants penetrated the Bawaria communities to obtain crucial information, despite the risks involved. The team was able to successfully carry out the operation with the WCCB team thanks to the information. The poaching of India's national animal will be stopped and a larger network of poachers will be discovered thanks to this operation.

Assistant Conservator of Forests (ACF), Wildlife Crime Control Bureau (WCCB), Tamil Nadu, claims that their team met the Wildlife SOS team and solicited their feedback before devising a strategy to ensure the success of the operation.

India is home to the most tigers in the world—nearly 3,000 of the approximately 4,500 tigers in the world live there. When viewed in the context of tiger poaching and trafficking, the number may sound encouraging, but it is also a curse. Due to the fact that it is simpler to locate tigers here than anywhere else, a high population is nothing more than a lucrative opportunity for poachers.
