Tracking tigers is not for the faint-of-heart. On this trip to the field Dr. Shannon Barber-Meyer of WWF’s species program dodged a charging elephant and crossed through Cambodia, Thailand, Nepal, India and Indonesia in search of the largest of all cats. Along the way she experienced the many habitats of these versatile animals – hiking over hills, wading through peat swamps, and bushwhacking through dense tropical forests.
With approximately 4,000 tigers left in the wild, WWF is working to protect their remaining habitat and stop poaching so their roar will last through the ages. Shannon is one of many conservationists around the world dedicated to tigers and their future.
