摘要

India's tiger population has grown to nearly 3,000, making the country one of the safest habitats for the endangered animals. Prime Minister Narendra Modi released the tiger count for 2018 today and said it's a "historic achievement" for India, whose big cat population had dwindled to 1,400 about 14 to 15 years ago.
