You Too Can Save Our Malayan Tigers!

In the 1950's, it was estimated that Malaysia had as many as 3000 tigers in the wild. In 2022, that number had dwindled to an estimated 150.  Is there still a chance to save our Malayan tiger? The answer is yes, and the Malaysian Conservation Alliance for Tigers (MYCAT) are spearheading several grassroots efforts which involve individuals playing their part in the conservation of our amazing tigers, including the Rewilding Yu programme, and the CAT Walk and CSR CAT Walk. We speak to Muna Noor, a Conservation Officer with MYCAT to find out more about how we all play a part in reversing the decline of the Malayan Tiger.
