International Tiger Day is celebrated on July 29 every year to raise awareness about the conservation of tigers and to acknowledge some of the greatest works done towards tiger conservation. The International Tiger Day was established in 2010 at Saint Petersburg Tiger Summit in Russia. It was started to raise awareness about the decline of wild tiger numbers, leaving them in the brink of extinction and to encourage the work of Tiger conservation. In the Summit, a declaration was made that Governments of tiger populated countries had vowed to double the tiger population by 2020. Across the world, there are currently 13 tiger range countries - India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Vietnam, Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Russia and Thailand.
