LETTER | Can Malaysia save a national symbol from poaching and trade?
A
-
LETTER | In early March Malaysia lost yet another wild tiger. Awang Rasau, as it was named, succumbed to the terrible damage inflicted by eight bullets, believed to be the work of poachers.
When there are so few left, every loss is an immense blow. Malaysia is thought to have less than 200 tigers left in the wild and Awang Rasau’s death means this national symbol has faded even further.
Malaysia’s forests reverberate with such losses; a tiger rescued from a snare along the Gerik-Jeli highway in 2009 that subsequently died, another rescued from the Bukit Kinta Forest Reserve in Perak with a snare wound in 2010, a dead tiger felled by four bullets, poison, spear wounds and snare injuries in the Bukit Tapah Forest Reserve also in 2010, and one more rescued from a snare in a plantation in a different Tapah plantation in 2016.
