Abstract
Research on the status and distribution of tiger (Panthera tigris corbetti) in Peninsular Malaysia was carried out from 1988 to 1990. Information was gathered from surveys, interviews with villagers affected by livestock predation by tiger and reports gathered from district offices of the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (DWNP). Areas with frequent reports of tiger were surveyed to determine its presence, number and habitat. The status and distribution of tiger in 8 states and Taman Negara was determined. The tiger population was estimated to be between 491-510 animals with Trengganu having the largest population (109), Pahang (84-99), Perak (81), Kelantan (65-69), Johor (38-40), Kedah (14). Selangor (10-14), Negeri Sembilan (9-13) and Taman Negara (72). No tiger are reported in Pulau Pinang, Perlis, Melaka and the Federal Territory.
