Sumatran tigers are the rarest species of tiger, classified as Critically Endangered, with only 500-600 individuals left in the wild.

Facts:

2.  In the wild, a tiger can live 15-20 years, captive breeding programme data suggests this could be even more for tigers in zoos.
3. Their range size is estimated at 52 km² for a male and a much smaller 27 km² for the female of the subspecies.
4. They live in Tropical broadleaf evergreen forests, freshwater swamp forests and peat swamps.
