Repaint the Stripes

The island of Sumatra, Indonesia, is home to one of the most threatened subspecies of tigers surviving in the wild: Panthera tigris

sumatrae. As part of WWF’s intervention and my Virginia Tech’s Student Research in Riau Province, this project aims to deliver improved knowledge of the tiger’s ecology, which will inform management of protected areas as well as the integration of ecosystem in a multi-use landscape. View more information about this project on pdf as presented in the IUCN Cat Specialist Group's website.
