Wild Animal Wednesday! Tigers Need Your Help!
Tigers are in serious danger of becoming extinct. There are fewer than 50 wild tigers left in China and the global wild tiger population is at an all time low of about 3,200 (down from 20,000 in the 1980's!). According to Discoverynews.com "Degradation of the animal's habitat and poaching of the tiger and its prey are blamed for its rapid disappearance." These creatures are so beautiful, we can't let this happen to them!
The Wildlife Conservation Society is busy working to help the tigers... but they need our help. "WCS's Tigers Forever initiative, a collaboration with the Panthera foundation, aspires to boost tiger numbers by 50 percent by 2015 across a dozen WCS field sites in Asia, from 800 to approximately 1,200 cats. Innovative programs and partnerships throughout the tiger’s remaining range are helping us to achieve this goal."
Do you want to help the tigers and want to get in shape but can't find the motivation? Let the tigers motivate you! This Spring at the Bronx Zoo, The WCS is hosting a 5K run/walk to help with the Tiger initiative. Run for the Wild and "Make Tracks for Tigers" in 2010. We can all make a difference, and get in shape during the process. I'll be there, will you? Sign up today!!
