Good news on #GlobalTigerDay, as Bhutan has reported a marked increase in its wild tiger population!
The newly released survey found that Bhutan is now home to 131 tigers - up 27% from the last count, held in 2015.

@MilesParisi @WildCRU_Ox@SciReports@OxfordBiology That case study is highly relevant. We discuss it and make comparisons throughout the paper. A very informative genetic management experiment for managers of large carnivores, for sure.
A new paper led by WildCRU’s Dr. Eric Ash explores the potential effects of translocations on #tiger population numbers and genetic diversity – providing valuable insight for large #carnivore#conservation and population modelling.
