In the past century, the world has lost three of the eight tiger subspecies. The Bali, Caspian and Javan tigers have all become extinct, and the South China tiger faces the same fate. Not extinct - yet: Indo-Chinese tiger South China tiger Amur (Siberian) tiger Sumatran tiger Bengal tiger http://www.panda.org/about_wwf/what_we_do/species/our_solutions/endangered_species/tigers/index.cfm Oct 24 06, 4:27 PM

Sabertooth Tiger: Extinct - not coming back (no matter how much scientists may want to try to via cloning). Bali, Javan, and Caspian Tigers: Extinct Sumatran Tiger: Endangered South China Tiger: Endangered Indochinese Tiger: Endangered Golden Tabby Tiger: Endangered Siberian Tiger: Endangered Bengal Tiger: Alive - probably headed for the endangered list soon.

Siberian Tigers are endangered in the wild. Only about 350 - 420 survive in the wild (perhaps as few as 200), and 1,000 live in zoos around the world. http://www.hal-pc.org/~jsb/tigers.html Oct 26 06, 8:05 PM

The only species of tiger still alive is Panther tigris. The Amur, Bengal, Indochinese, South China, Malayan and Sumatran tigers are sub-species. Of these, as Brainybonde says, the Amur is endangered, and the rest are not plentiful, apart from the South China which is probably extinct like the Bali, Java and Caspian tigers. The sabre-tooth is not actually a tiger in the genus Panther, but in fact a Smilodon and only shares a distant ancestry with the modern tiger. http://www.savethetigerfund.org//AM/Template.cfm?Section=Home1 Oct 27 06, 3:22 AM
