Pleistocene, for approximately 12,000 to 16,500
years. Today, it's far threatened through poaching, loss and fragmentation of
habitat, and turned into envisioned at comprising fewer than 2,500 wild people through 2011. None of the Tiger Conservation
Landscapes inside its variety
is taken into consideration massive sufficient
to aid an powerful
populace of greater
than 250 grownup people.
The Bengal tiger's ancient
variety protected nearly
all of India and into Pakistan's Indus River valley till
the early nineteenth century. Today, it inhabits India,
Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan and southern Tibet. India's tiger populace turned into envisioned at 2,603–3,346 people

As of 2014, approximately 35 people have
been envisioned to variety
withinside the worldwide border region among
Russia and China. The Siberian tiger is genetically near
the now-extinct Caspian tiger. Results of a phylogeographic take a look at evaluating mitochondrial DNA from Caspian tigers
and dwelling tiger populations suggest that the not
unusualplace ancestor of the Siberian and Caspian tigers colonized
Central Asia from jap China, through the Gansu−Silk Road corridor, after which ultimately traversed Siberia
eastward to set up the Siberian tiger populace withinside
the Russian Far East. The Caspian and Siberian tiger populations have been the northernmost in mainland Asia. The

is the simplest surviving tiger populace
withinside the Sunda Islands, wherein the Bali and Javan tigers are
extinct.[4] Sequences from whole
mitochondrial genes of 34 tigers aid the speculation
that Sumatran tigers are diagnostically wonderful
from mainland subspecies. In 2017, the Cat Classification Task Force of the Cat
Specialist Group revised felid taxonomy and acknowledges
the dwelling and extinct tiger populations in
