Palembang (Antara Bali) - World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) in Indonesia said that at least 80 Sumatran Tigers (panthera tigris sumatrae) are breeding well in South Bukit Barisan National Park.

"Dozens of tigers live well in the forests of South Sumatra and Lampung," said Project Leader of WWF Indonesia Job Charles here on Sunday.

According to him, despite the fact that human activities have threatened the tigers' habitat, the breeding of this species pans out in Sumatra's national parks.

The success of the tiger breeding is thanks to the cooperation between nature lovers and the local community who help protect the habitat of the tigers.

"The WWF along with other institutions and local communities are continuously preserving the habitat in order to promote the tiger's breeding and increase the population," said Charles. (IGT)
