Q. International Tiger Day is observed every year on which day?
Answer: 29 July
Notes: International Tiger Day is observed every year on July 29 to raise awareness about tiger conservation. The day was first established in 2010 during the Saint Petersburg Tiger Summit. Thirteen tiger-range countries participated in the summit, including India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Malaysia, and Russia. The summit launched the “Tx2” program, aiming to double the global tiger population by 2022. World Wildlife Fund (WWF) reports that tiger numbers have dropped from 100,000 a century ago to around 4,000 today. The day highlights the urgent need to protect tiger habitats and support conservation globally.
