Raising funds to save the tiger in the wild www.tigertime.info
ABOUT TigerTime and ‘Stars & Stripes’ Founded by British wildlife artist and conservationist, David Shepherd CBE, TigerTime is a campaign run by the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation to raise awareness and funds to save the tiger in the wild. “With only an estimated 3,500 tigers left in the wild TigerTime was launched to increase awareness and funds for the vital conservation projects that my Foundation supports in India, Thailand and the Russian Far East,” explains David Shepherd. “I for one refuse to stand by and watch the tiger become extinct.” The campaign works by engaging new audiences through social media networks around the world. Its aim is to spread the word about the plight of this iconic big cat and to inspire people to join the fight to save the tiger by campaigning for changes to the law governing the trade in endangered species and raising funds to support the Foundations vital work in the field. TigerTime has a wealth of celebrity supporters whose activity on social media and through the contribution of their time is helping to give voice to the campaign and to save the tiger. TigerTime is indebted to the celebrities who have helped with its ‘Stars & Stripes’ celebrity postcard event and hope that it will raise much needed funds to conserve this most beautiful of cats.

I’m a real animal-lover and grew up in a family of animal-lovers and I’ve always found cats intriguing. When I heard that there were as few as 3,500 tigers left in the wild I was shocked. The thought of my daughter and future generations growing up in a world without tigers inspired me to take action.

I am supporting the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation TigerTime initiative for the simple reason that if the world does nothing there’s a real chance that we will lose these incredible creatures forever. Patrols, investigations, monitoring and, of course education, are all vital to keeping the species alive; TigerTime provides these. It’s time to act.

We’ve grown up listening to stories throughout our childhood of the majestical tiger, presuming that they will always be part of our planet. But if their demise continues at the current rate it won’t be long before the tiger becomes extinct and all that will remain is a ‘once upon a time story’. Please show your support for TigerTime and help tigers remain part of our future generations lives.

As a massive animal lover it is appalling to watch as the human race is on the verge of annihilating the wild tiger population. We have a responsibility to ensure the survival of these magnificent big cats in the wild. We should be ashamed that the number of wild tigers has fallen from 100,000 to just over 3,000 in 80 years. There are various things that can be done to help stop this & taking a few seconds to sign up to TigerTime is the least any conscientious animal lover can do.
