The Indonesian Archipel was home of three tiger subspecies until 1950: the Bali tiger, te Javan tiger, and the Sumatran tiger. Around 1950, the Bali tiger had become extinct, while the Javan tiger was hunted so heavy that it had become fairly rare and now also became extinct. There are only some hundred individuals remaining of the Sumatran tiger. (P. Boomgaard, 2001) Tiger shot in May 1941. Malingping. Bantam.
