 image of Cheetah
The famous animal stars of Tarzan movie died. This chimpanzee was co-artist with Johnny Weissmuller in such movies "Tarzan the Ape man" & "Tarzan and his mate".Debbie Cobb, the outreach director at the Suncoast Primate Sanctuary in Palm Harbor, Fla., where Cheetah lived, told The Tribune that Cheetah was about 80 years old and died of kidney failure on Saturday.
In the Tarzan film series, whose golden age spanned 1932 to 1948, Cheetah was said to have appeared in the films made between 1932 and 1934, as a comic and sympathetic animal sidekick whose intelligence sometimes seemed to rival that of his human co-stars, Weissmuller (who played the titular jungle lord) and Maureen O'Sollivan (who portrayed his civilized love interest, Jane).

But now a day they are fall in trouble like dinosaurs, because numbers of tigers are decreasing. The Bengal tiger's most popular place well known by all over the world is the largest mangrove forest "Sundorban" of Bangladesh.As of 2004, population estimates in Bangladesh ranged from 200 to 419, mostly in the Sundorbans. This region is the only mangrove habitat in this bioregion, where tigers survive, swimming between islands in the delta to hunt prey. As of 2010, the mean estimated number is estimated at 440 adult tigers. Bangladesh's Forest Department is raising mangrove plantations supplying forage for spotted deer. Since 2001, afforestation has continued on a small scale in newly accreted lands and islands of the Sundarbans.
