UNDP Indonesia’s Save Sumatran Tiger

#TIME4TIGERS to be free of traps. Fierce and majestic, Sumatran tigers are known as the forest’s most-feared guardians. Living as the symbol of peace to many, their roars have echoed throughout Sumatra, Java, and Bali. But since the 1980s and 1940s, tigers are now extinct in both Java and Bali leaving the Sumatran tigers struggling to survive. Although tigers are seen as both fierce, and the symbol of peace for many, humans are now threatening their lives. People living in close proximity to Sumatran tigers are using cruel traps to protect their communities and livestock from them. These sharp, metal contraptions catch the tigers’ paws, causing permanent damage. In many cases, trapped tigers try to force their way out of the trap and end up dead. We must stop the use of these inhumane traps. UNDP Indonesia and Forum Harimau Kita are aiming to raise Rp 25 million to implement our #Time4Tigers initiative. The money raised will be used to fund travel and living expenses for all volunteers and logistical needs of the ‘Sapu Jerat’ or sweep. Whether you are a wildlife activist or an animal lover, join our campaign to save the tiger! If we don’t act now, soon you’ll be reading a fairy tale about Sumatran tigers that once roamed the jungle on the Indonesian island.
