A vast mangrove forest shared by Bangladesh and India that is home to possibly 500 Bengal tigers is being rapidly destroyed by erosion, rising sea levels and storm surges,according to a major study by researchers at the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) and others.
The Sundarbans forest took the brunt of super cyclone Sidar in 2007, but news satellite studies show that 71% of the foreated Coastline is retreating by as much as 200 metres a year.If erosion continue at this pace, already threatened tiger population living in the forests will be put further at risk.
