Global Tiger Recovery Program Initial Draft Released for Peer and Public Review
August 9th, 2010
Following the decision of the Pre-Tiger Summit Partners Dialogue meeting (Bali, Indonesia, July 12-14, 2010), an initial draft of the program underpinning efforts to help wild tigers recover and double in population over the next twelve years was released on July 31 by the Global Tiger Initiative (GTI) Secretariat for feedback from Tiger Range Countries, other GTI partners, and interested stakeholders.
The Global Tiger Recovery Program (GTRP) is intended to provide the common platform of tiger conservation implementation, the first overarching and comprehensive plan of its kind to take effect across the Tiger Range Countries, backed by coherent and coordinated support from their international partners. It will be a product of thorough and focused bottom-up deliberations that already took place in each of the Tiger Range Countries with strong support from GTI partners, followed by an open peer and public review, and world class expertise from some of the most eminent tiger, wildlife and sustainable development experts.
The program will integrate National Tiger Recovery Priorities, developed by the 13 Tiger Range Countries, and several Global Support Programs to support the national priorities and to affect regional and transnational actions in favor of conservation and recovery of wild tigers and their habitats.
Further consultations with partners and stakeholders will now move ahead to improve and enrich the draft GTRP. The Governments of Tiger Range Countries and their implementation and funding partners are expected to endorse the overall program and secure its core financial support at the Heads of Government Tiger Summit in St. Petersburg later this year.

That is wonderful that contries are pulling together to help with the bengal tigers. They are so beautiful, and must remain on our planet and not go extinct. Thank you all for participating in this great cause.
