Russia’s Prime Minster Vladimir Putin is known as a big cat lover. He’s recently organized a five day International Forum on Tiger Conservation that commenced on Sunday in St. Petersburg, Russia and involves leaders in conservation trying to solve the problem of saving tigers before they become extinct.
The conference will end with the goal of both saving tigers and increasing their numbers by the year 2022 by getting 13 countries with tiger populations to sign the St. Petersburg Declaration–an affirmation that they will work towards these goals.
