Peter Jackson (mammalogist)
Peter Jackson (born 27 January, 1926 in London) is a British scholar, professional photographer and author, expert on felines, particularly tigers. Jackson is chairman emeritus of the World Conservation Union (IUCN) Cat Specialist Group, which includes hundreds of scientists and wildlife managers worldwide, involved with the survival of wild cats.
His interest in tigers arose during 18 years in India as a news correspondent, which led to work with WWF International, Operation Tiger, India's Project Tiger, and conservation programs in Nepal, Thailand and Indonesia.
Peter Jackson has co-authored and co-edited several publications on big cats and tigers, including ''Wild Cats: Status Survey and Conservation Action Plan'', compiled and edited by Kristin Nowell and Peter Jackson (IUCN 1996), and ''Riding the Tiger: Tiger Conservation in Human Dominated Landscapes'' (Cambridge University Press 1999).〔(Peter Jackson short biography )〕
Jackson initially worked independently to promote tiger conservation. In 1983 he became the Chair of the Cat Specialist Group. He held this position for 17 years. In 2004 a newly established subspecies of the tiger, Malayan tiger, was given a name ''Panthera tigris jacksoni'' in honor of Peter Jackson.〔 (Information on a new tiger subspecies named after Peter Jackson ) 〕
