Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio has donated $3 million (£1.85 million) to help save tigers in Nepal. The Great Gatsby star made the donation to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) via his charitable foundation. The funds will be used to significantly increase the number of tigers in Nepal by 2022 - the next year of the tiger. In a statement, the 39-year-old said hes hopeful the money will help exceed the goal of doubling Nepals tiger population. Nepals tigers are classified as endangered and - as with the general tiger population - are under threat from habitat destruction and escalating illegal poaching.#BBC
