Our Mission - Brief Overview

 

The two largest threats to tigers are the lack of habitat and the encroachment of humans, and illegal poaching. Our first efforts are dedicated to saving tiger habitat by encouraging conservation of the forests in which they live. Tigers survive in some of the last great forests of Asia, which are critical not only for their biodiversity but also as stores of carbon that would end up released into the atmosphere if these forests were cut down. By protecting tiger habitat, we help mitigate climate change.

 

 

The only things that will save the tigers is to protect their habitat through efforts to increase sustainable forestry practices in Asia, and an end to poaching.

 

The other aspect of protecting the tigers is to end the demand for tiger parts. Ramp up anti-poaching measures, inform and move consumers of tiger products to change their habits, and maintain and enforce the laws banning tiger products.
