# Sumatran tiger conservation and human-wildlife conflict > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/sumatran-tiger-conservation-and-human-wildlife-conflict > Updated: 2026-09-08T09:57:49.000Z. Sources: 8. Developments: 2. The Sumatran tiger, an endangered subspecies with approximately 400 individuals remaining in the wild, faces ongoing threats from habitat loss and human-wildlife conflict. In West Sumatra, Indonesia, authorities recently captured a young female tiger that had been entering residential areas and preying on livestock. The animal was trapped using a goat carcass as bait and was scheduled for medical examination before a planned release into the wild. Concurrently, conservation efforts are expanding through captive breeding programs. At the Attica Zoological Park in Greece, three two-month-old cubs—two males and one female—were recently microchipped and vaccinated. These cubs were born to a mother named Toba and a father named Argos, though Argos recently passed away from cancer. These captive populations are intended to serve as a global backup to support the species and facilitate future reintroductions into natural habitats. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-08: Attica Zoological Park welcomes three Sumatran tiger cubs Three critically endangered Sumatran tiger cubs were born at the Attica Zoological Park in Greece, supporting global efforts to maintain a safety population for future reintroduction. 8 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/sumatran-tiger-cubs-born-in-greece-to-support-conservation ### 2026-08-13: Sumatra tiger captured in Indonesia after village disturbances A rare Sumatra tiger was captured in Indonesia after entering residential areas and preying on livestock.
