What is the Future of the Ecosystem?

This graph shows the general trend of the Bengal Tiger population in India. Based on the human impacts listed above, if things keep going the way they currently are, the Bengal Tiger has a very good chance of going extinct in India. It is extremely likely, based on past indicators, that the Bengal Tiger will go extinct in the next two decades. Not only that, but the habitat of the tigers are also being destroyed, as shown in the chart titled "Losses for India Between 1900 and 2000." There is a direct relationship between the population of the tiger and how much land the tiger has to live on. As grasslands keep being destroyed, the tiger population keeps reducing.
