Get Congress to Save Tigers from Poaching!


Get Congress to Save Tigers from Poaching!
The Issue
The world's tiger population is on the brink! In India, home to at least half of the world's tigers, only an estimated 1,500 remain, a decline of more than 50 percent since 2001, according to the government-run National Tiger Conservation Authority. In 1994, Congress passed the Rhinoceros and Tiger Conservation Act to support and provide financial resources for conservation programs in nations struggling to protect their rhinoceros and tiger populations.
Urge Congress to increase funding for the Rhinoceros and Tiger Conservation Fund!
