Tigers are a very important part of the food chain, but sadly they are going extinct. Their habitats are being destroyed, forcing the tigers to kill farmers livestock. In some countries tigers are still used for medicinal purposes, so they are often hunted for their teeth and pelts. Tigers may not seem important but they play a very important part on the food chain. Without these tigers the population of boars and other prey would sky-rocket and that would not be good for the environment.
