Tiger Awareness are currently working in India to spread their message about protecting tigers. They also work with the local people, to give them improved water facilities, education and fuels to survive. They run awareness programmes educating the locals about balance. The forest can supply their daily needs, but taking too much can be harmful to themselves and to the mammals. Tiger Awareness Funds Tiger Awareness provided funds to build a hospital on Satjelia Island. This an area home to the largest amount of tigers surviving in the wild, on the edge of the Sundarban tiger reserve.
