Amur Tiger Booklet
Wildlife Alliance would like to extend a special thank-you to the Tamaki Foundation for its support of the English-language edition of Amur Tiger Book for Children, a 25-page educational booklet compiled and translated into English by our Russian Partner, Phoenix Fund, and edited by Wildlife Alliance. Inside the booklet, children will find games and pictures and read uniquely-crafted stories that encourage them to think and live as an Amur tiger would. As they read about the difficulties of growing up as a tiger, teachers and children also learn about particular threats to tiger survival and preservation.

GPS Technology Helps Rangers Better Protect Parks
Wildlife Alliance's Thai partner, PeunPa, has donated 21 new GPS units to Khao Yai National Park and trained rangers in GPS navigation techniques. While many rangers have local knowledge of forest routes and can patrol them without navigational aids, poachers also know the routes and often avoid them. New GPS equipment allows rangers to vary their patrol routes, making it harder for poachers to avoid detection and leading to better protection of Khao Yai's natural ecosystem and diverse wildlife. Wildlife Alliance recently ordered additional GPS units and compasses for Thailand's rangers. |
