A New Dawn for Tigers

From folklore and stories to conservation efforts, tigers have long captivated the human imagination and attention of people around the world, serving as a unifying force about the crucial role wildlife play in nature, as well as cultures, art, and literature. While tiger numbers have been on the upswing and their conservation has seen many successes, there is still a lot of work to be done to ensure their sustained survival in the wild. In this episode of World Wildlife Fund’s Wildlife Café series, Alexander Nicolas and Dechen Dorji talk about the awe-inspiring world of tiger conservation and how they can continue to be a symbol of strength, resilience, and biodiversity conservation.
