For the first time, a comprehensive review of laws in 12 tiger range countries exposes critical gaps in legislation that may help facilitate the trafficking of tigers.  

The new report, Law of the Tiger: A Comparative Study of the Laws Governing Tiger Trafficking in 12 Tiger Range States, reveals critical legal gaps and inconsistencies that unless addressed would hinder efforts to counter the trafficking of tigers — undermining decades of conservation efforts and putting wild tigers at risk. 

The report found significant gaps and inconsistencies across multiple countries and provides recommendations for legislative reform and policy priorities for national governments.
