India's tiger population doubles since 2006

India has more than doubled its tiger population since 2006, now home to 3,682 tigers.

This success is due to strong conservation efforts, including Project Tiger and the National Tiger Conservation Authority.

India now has the world's largest wild tiger population, with 70% of all wild tigers globally.

The country has established 58 tiger reserves covering about 2.56% of its geographical area.

Looking ahead, India aims to secure connected, climate-resilient tiger landscapes that support both wildlife and people.
