Tiger poaching dropped nearly 60 percent in 2011 as compared to the previous year, though it continues to pose a major threat to the survival of the big cat in the country, a leading NGO said.
According to the Wildlife Protection Society of India (WPSI), 13 tigers were hunted last year as compared to 30 in 2010 - a decline of 57 percent. The bodies of poached tigers, seized bones and skins were computed to arrive at the figures. Click on date for more details
Volunteers
The success of GTP as an effective Charity is the result of the voluntary actions of people who wish to ‘do something to save the tiger’.
GTP is always delighted to hear from anyone across the Country who is interested in supporting tiger conservation and particularly from those who would like to help in fund raising activities or who can offer professional skills – or simply have time or a talent.
Please email your details to admin@globaltigerpatrol.org or phone 01428 653703
Volunteering opportunities to work within tiger range countries are very rare. Whilst we will send offers from individuals looking to work abroad on to our partners we regret that most are unlikely to prove practical.
