Thai project offers hope for endangered Indochinese tigers
AS ON of the last refuges of Indochinese tigers, Thailand is working to protect the endangered big cats from poachers. A tiger conservation centre was launched last Friday in Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary, where forest rangers will be trained to track the endangered big cats, their prey – and their poachers. Hunting has taken a devastating toll on Indochinese tigers, native to Thailand and neighbouring countries.
