Roaring back: Remove a snare, save a tiger

Summary
Tigers face a high risk of extinction. Google "tiger in Laos" or "tiger in Cambodia" and see for yourself - it has already happened. Several areas previously recognized as "source sites" where tiger reproduction was documented a mere decade ago are now devoid of tigers altogether or experiencing rapid declines. With a population of ~500 individuals, Sumatra likely contains ~20-25% of the global number of wild tigers. But indiscriminate snare traps severely hinder Sumatran tiger conservation.
