The annual loss of livestock attributable Large carnivores play a significant role in ecosystem to tigers was 0.26 animals per household, amounting to an functioning, with their absence inducing changes in annual loss of 2% of livestock. Livestock predation rates were predator–prey relationships and inter-specific competition particularly high in areas with low abundance of natural (Treves & Karanth, 2003).
