State of faunal Status with Special Reference to Bengal Tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) in Sundarban Delta

摘要

The mangrove ecology of Sundarban delta is one of the global biodiversity hotspots. The ecology harbours theBengal Tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) besides other. The species is highly threatened as per Red Data Book. Theecology has suffered huge degradation over the years by many known and unknown forces of varying magnitude.Though various efforts are being made to conserve the ecology but yet the degradation could not be checked upto expectation. The effect of degradation is clearly reflected through the status of Panthera tigris tigris in itsnatural habitat. Hence the different aspects of faunal status with special reference to Bengal Tiger in Sundarbanecology during about last two decades has been searched and discussed briefly.
