Conservation - Félins d'Asie - Sauvegarde (74) Images supplémentaires...
Asia's big cats are all threatened, due to habitat loss, decline in prey numbers and illegal trade in skins and body parts. NPL is supporting the EIA campaign, in conjunction with the Wildlife Conservation Society of India, to expose the trans-Himalayan trade in the skins of tigers and other Asian big cats. This gallery illustrates some of the threats faced by tigers and other Asian big cats and some of the work being undertaken to protect them. It depicts the key subspecies of tigers and Asian leopards, including rare images of Amur leopard and Siberian tigers in the wild.
