Riau province is home to one-third of the entire Sumatran tiger population. Unfortunately, despite being legally protected, the tiger population has continued to decline by up to 70% in the last quarter century. In 2007, it was estimated that only 192 Sumatran tigers remained in the wild in Riau Province. As a protected animal in Indonesia based on Law Number 5 of 1990 concerning Conservation of Biological Natural Resources and their Ecosystems, the Sumatran tiger, whose Latin name is Panthera tigris sumatrae & x28;Luskin, 2017& x29;, only has ± 600 left. Its population is threatened by poaching and illegal trade. The snare is a terrible scourge for the king of the jungle. Hunters use snares as the main tool for hunting tigers because it is easy, cheap and under great pressure to get the animals they hunt.
