Tiger Conservation Landscapes Reports
The methods used and models created this time around differ significantly from the 1997 document. This has been an inclusive and collaborative effort in regards to the sharing of tiger data and map revisions. TCU’s have been defined differently (now called Tiger Conservation Landscapes). This second document, referred to as TCU 2.0, will take the format of a ‘living document’. Besides a technical report that is transparent in our methodologies, there is a smaller, 40 page users guide that is user-friendly, and will made accessible to tiger range states to help guide tiger conservation efforts and priorities. Over all, the outcomes of this project will present a more realistic and accurate picture of tiger conservation and for setting better and more effective conservation priorities to ensure the survival of the tiger. 2006 - Setting Priorities for the Conservation and Recovery of Wild Tigers: 2005-2015: A USERS GUIDE (2MB document) 2006 - Setting Priorities for the Conservation and Recovery of Wild Tigers: 2005-2015: A TECHNICAL REPORT (WARNING-20MB document!

In 1995, the World Wildlife Fund and Wildlife
Conservation Society prepared a framework to guide and
prioritize in situ tiger conservation efforts across Asia. Commissioned
by the Save the Tiger Fund, the study rapidly became a roadmap to guide
tiger conservation, and was widely used by researchers and conservation
biologists. Nine years later, WWF, WCS and Save The tiger Fund are in
the process of updating and revising the TCU map and underlying database
to reflect changes in available habitat for tigers, available
information on threats and prey abundance, and progress in conservation
efforts to date in the TCUs.
