"Rising Tiger Populations: India and Bhutan Witness Growth on Global Tiger Day"
India's tiger population has increased by almost 24% in four years, with the latest estimate placing the number at 3,682 tigers. This is up from the 3,167 tigers announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in April. The report, released on International Tiger Day, highlights the efforts of various states, with Madhya Pradesh leading the way with 785 tigers. However, there are areas of concern, as some states have seen a decline in tiger numbers. Overall, the increase in tiger population is seen as a significant achievement in India's conservation efforts.
