Protect Wild Tigers
Will you become a tiger friend by donating today?
Tigers are under growing pressure from poaching and habitat loss.
These threats are pushing them ever closer to people - increasing the risk of conflict and putting their survival at risk.
As apex predators, tigers play a significant role in the structure and function of the ecosystems on which humans and wildlife rely. With your support, we can help secure their future by:
- Tackling the illegal wildlife trade that threatens their survival
- Protecting and restoring vital habitats, so tigers have space to roam
- Working alongside local communities, supporting people and wildlife to live safely side by side
Tiger conservation is fragile
Tiger conservation is one of the great success stories of our time – but it remains fragile.
Threats like poaching, habitat loss and conflict with people continue to put pressure on wild tiger populations. As forests shrink and fragment, tigers are moving through farmland and villages more, bringing them into close contact with people.
These encounters can be dangerous for both.
Conflict Management
The Terai Arc Landscape stretches across India and Nepal. It’s one of the most vital tiger habitats on Earth. It's also the very definition of an ever-changing landscape. As tiger numbers look to recover, habitats and human activities increasingly overlap, and the likelihood of conflict grows.
Human-tiger coexistence
Wild tigers are increasingly using sugar cane fields as an extension of their habitat and as cover, moving through tall crops to hunt and rest close to villages. For farmers entering these sugar cane fields to tend their crops, there's no way of knowing if a tiger is near. To change the course for tigers, we're working with communities across tiger-range countries, including India and Nepal, to coexist safely.
Tiger Friends
The 'Bagh Mitras' are a group of people from local communities whose collective name literally translates as 'Tiger Friends' and are the brave face of tiger conservation.
They're a network of volunteers in towns and villages who come together to monitor tiger activity and use alert systems to warn their communities when a tiger is close by.
By seeing tigers as something to protect, communities are making coexistence possible for generations to come.
