Saving Tigers Together: RIMAU’s Conservation Mission

Just last month, as we celebrated Malaysia Day, news broke of a heartbreaking poaching case in Johor, where a Malayan tiger was found dead, stuffed into the boot of a car. It had been caught in a trap and shot six times before its death, a cruel reminder of how vulnerable our national treasure remains. With fewer than 150 Malayan tigers left in the wild, every loss hits hard, but there’s still hope, thanks to the tireless efforts of those working to protect them. One such group is Persatuan Pelindung Harimau Malaysia, or RIMAU, an organisation dedicated to protecting tiger habitats, reducing poaching, and inspiring Malaysians to take action. We speak with RIMAU's President Lara Ariffin, and Secretary Renee Aziz Ahmad, about the fight to save the Malayan tiger, the challenges, the progress, and the hope that keeps them going.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
