3. EAZA Tiger Campaign 2002/4
The charismatic tiger is seriously endangered in the wild. Currently only 5 of the formerly 8 subspecies remain.
Via the EAZA Tiger Campaign, 9 tiger conservation projects in India, Thailand, Russia and Indonesia are supported.
The aim of this campaign was to contribute to in situ conservation of the five subspecies of tiger left in the world, by raising public awareness and raising funds in support of selected tiger conservation projects. The goal was to raise a total amount of €500,000.
In Brno Zoo:
- We informed public on more locations of our zoo and in the city centre
- Our visitors supported campaign by amount of € 1.500
- Our zoological garden organized literary and painting competitions. By total count of 433 works children warned about critical situation of wild living tigers
