"There are more tigers in American gardens than there are left in the wild."
"According to the US Fish & Wildlife Service, there are between 3,200 and 3,500 tigers remaining in the wild globally. By some estimates there are 5,000 in captivity in the US, though there might be more."
On the other hand it is rather reassuring being able to walk the dog without fear of being eaten by a tiger. I suspect the benefits of living in close proximity to tigers is exagerrated by guardian-reading tree-huggers living on the other side of the world.
