Updates On 3rd Mar 2018 3rd Mar 2018, by WWF Malaysia
“I’ve been working with WWF-Malaysia for the past 13 years. While doing my PhD in 2012, I was also conducting monitoring work in the forests of Belum-Temengor.
At that time, the nearest settlement was about a day’s walk away. There was one incident where I was driving the 4WD along a logging road when I suddenly came into an area with many fallen trees.
I was confident that I would be able to navigate across it safely, but little did I know that I was driving straight into danger.

#DYK Clouded leopards are the biggest predators on Borneo? They can be as large as small panthers, and they're noted for having the longest canine teeth relative to body size of any cat.

WWF-Malaysia’s tiger conservation programme started way back in 1997, and has grown leaps and bounds since...

World Wildlife Day Tigers 2nd Mar 2018, by WWF Malaysia
If we told you a tiger was within a protected range, wouldn’t you expect it to be safe from threats? Unfortunately, it’s been found that 85% of tiger sites do not even have enough rangers to protect them, leaving tigers vulnerable to poaching and illegal trade 😟
Tigers already face grave threats from the illegal wildlife trade. As #WorldWildlifeDay approaches on March 3, let’s keep the spirit of the tiger alive by protecting these endangered big cats and our planet’s diversity of li...

KK12FM Know What You Eat 2nd Mar 2018, by WWF Malaysia
Know what you buy and what you eat! In this video collaboration with KK12FM, we highlight the laws and regulations surrounding wildlife hunting and buying.

Imagine encountering a polar bear on your way to work or school.
For part of the year, a dangerous encounter is all too possible for the residents of Amderma, Russia.
There have been no deadly conflicts in recent memory, and that’s largely thanks to the dedicated patrol team keeping residents safe: http://bit.ly/2EJhMkm. #PolarBearDay
