Global conservation organization WWF today sounded an alarm over poaching of tigers and said that on average, two wild cats are killed per week due to high demand of their body parts in Asian countries. It also said wild tigers were facing the risk of extinction in some countries due to a lack of accurate information on their population. "Poaching is the greatest threat to wild tigers today. Along with ivory and rhino horn, tiger parts are in high demand throughout Asia," WWF said in a release coinciding with Global Tiger Day.
