Endangered Royal Bengal Tigers

Lalgarh in West Bengal, once active with Maoists, has now become the killing field of an adult Royal Bengal tiger. The endangered beast was discovered in a forest in the area with a spear through its face.

India's most famous tiger, photographed by thousands of tourists over the years at Ranthambore National Park, died on Thursday, days after the ageing animal stopped eating.

Bangladesh officials warned today that an oil spill from a crashed tanker is threatening endangered dolphins and other wildlife in the massive Sundarbans mangrove region, branding the leak an ecological "catastrophe".

Hundreds of conservationists have begun a major survey of the number of endangered Royal Bengal tigers living in a vast forest region bordering Nepal and India, officials said Tuesday.

It's been a rather bad wildlife week in the Northeast region. Three of the big five endangered species were brutally killed.
