Abstract
Poaching of tigers and their key prey threatens the survival of tigers across their range. This
in the Sundarbans Reserved Forest of Bangladesh, to help better design and direct future
prey and an approach to killing tigers by poisoning prey carcasses with a Carbofuran
snare sets to kill tiger prey. With an average of 23 snare loops/snare set, this is equivalent
Poachers selected sites that tended to be away from guard posts, and close to river banks,
current poaching pressure is likely to have contributed to a recent decline in relative tiger
countries, and using remote camera traps set up around snares and poisoned baits to help
investigating the methods, intensity and distribution of poaching, that could be replicated
levels over time.
