The conservation status of the tiger shark (Galeocerdo cuvier) is currently considered near threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). This means that while the population of tiger sharks has not yet declined enough to be listed as a threatened species, they are facing significant threats and may become endangered in the near future if conservation efforts are not implemented effectively. The main threats to tiger sharks include overfishing, habitat degradation, and accidental capture in fishing gear.
