It is the smallest of the eight subspecies of tiger, and has the longest cheek whiskers, forming a short mane across the neck. The encroachment of the growing human population, along with increases in poaching, led to the near-extinction of the Javan tiger. The Indonesian government has become involved in trying to preserve the tiger. It is to be hoped that the remaining subspecies of tiger will be helped by increasing awareness and stricter protections.
