WAYS YOU CAN SAVE THE TIGER

This was taken of me at the Tiger Temple in Thailand. Unfortunately, while this was an experience of a lifetime for me, and a dream come true, I should not have been there. It turns out this monk run operation supposedly established as a sanctuary for tigers is actually trafficking tigers and abusing them. It kills my soul to think I took part by being there, paying to pet tigers. Ignorance is no defense! Sigh... Here's an article detailing the investigation...

FROM THE WORLD WILDLIFE FUND WEBSITE HERE'S THEIR ADVICE:

Don't buy anything containing tiger parts. Poaching of tigers is driven by continued demand for tiger parts – like bones for Traditional Chinese Medicine and skins for clothes. 

If you buy such items, you are directly helping to exterminate the last of the wild tigers. Look for credible ecolabels For example, the Forest Stewardship Council label ensures that paper and wood products come from well- managed forests. Buy forest-friendly products. After poaching, the biggest threat to tigers is the destruction of their forest home – mainly due to illegal logging and conversion to agriculture, particularly commercial oil palm plantations.

You can help stop this habitat loss by buying products from sustainable forestry and agriculture operations. 

So when you're out shopping, look for: 

  • Certified paper and wood products
  • Products made from certified sustainable palm oil
    If you can't find any, ask your supermarket or shop why they are not stocking any ... and not helping tigers, and many other animals, to survive.
  • Sustainable coffee
    Illegally grown coffee in Sumatra is driving the destruction of tiger habitat (report - PDF). Watch where your coffee comes from – and choose coffee grown according to environmentally friendly principles.
