Save Big Cats!
Lions across Africa have declined to about 20,000. As few as 3,000 wild cheetahs roam Namibia and only 6,000 snow leopards remain in the Himalayas. National Geographic's Big Cats Initiative has been able to support pilot programs that effectively combat the poaching, poisoning, pesticides, and habitat loss that are eradicating big cats. They know what to do to save big cats and they need your help so that they can fully implement these conservation techniques. We have not a day to lose.

Taronga is celebrating the arrival of three precious Sumatran Tiger cubs, and they need names! Enter your suggestions here for your chance to win!
Sumatran Tigers have suffered greatly from habitat loss due to palm oil plantations destroying their forests; their body parts are still used extensively in traditional medicines and they are still hunted for their pelts. Taronga is financially supporting wildlife protection units in Sumatra, helping to create a network of community rangers to decrease illegal logging, hunting and vigilante actions against wildlife.
