INCREASING TIGER POPULATION IN JSWNP - BHUTAN



The camera trapping installed in 2010 had recorded 12 tigers in Jigme Singye Wangchuck National Park (JSWNP), central Bhutan. The density of tigers was much higher than a previous estimation of two tigers per 100 square kilometers area. It has also captured seven other species, such as the threatened asiatic golden cat (Pardofelis temmincki/ Catopuma temmincki), leopard cat (Prionailurus bengalenisis), jungle cat (Felis chaus), marbled cat (Pardofelis marmorata), common leopard (Panthera pardus) and clouded leopard (Neofelis nebulosa).
