Javan tigers were once so thick in Java, they were considered nothing more than pests. They were pushed to the edge of extinction because people increased leading to vast habitat destruction. Along with this the tigers were mercilessly hunted and poisoned, while also experiencing competition for prey with wild dogs and leopards. Meru Beteri is a national park in Java and was considered the Javan tigers only hope for survival. But unfortunetly, a 1979 expedition only resulted in three tiger tracks. The exact time of extinction is unknown, though thought to of been around 1980.
What do you think about this Tyler? What can we learn from the failed Meru Beteri National Park project. I would love to know about it. why didn't it work and so on.
