The Bengal Tiger was declared India's national animal in 1972. The same year The Indian Wildlife Protection Act came into action.
In 2008, it was listed among endangered species with fear of being poached and killed.
International Tiger's Day was announced in 2010 with the aim to raise awareness, promote and support natural habitat for tigers to flourish.
