Are tigers more endangered than jaguars?

Tigers are more endangered than jaguars, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Tigers are classified as Endangered, while jaguars are classified as Near Threatened. The main threats to tigers include habitat loss, poaching, and illegal trade. Tigers have lost at least 93% of their historic range, and their current population is estimated to be less than 3,900 individuals. Jaguars have lost about 33% of their historic range, and their current population is estimated to be about 64,000 individuals. While not as imperiled as tigers, jaguars face considerable challenges from habitat loss, hunting, and persecution. Conservation efforts are focusing on establishing protected areas, controlling illegal trade, promoting sustainable land management, and reducing human-wildlife conflict. By addressing these threats, we can help protect these magnificient predators and conserve their invaluable ecosystems.
