Eleven Tigers in Thailand Need Urgent Year End Rescue!

$20,000 MATCHING FUNDS TO DOUBLE YOUR GIFTS!

On December 23 we woke to receive the following email:

Re: URGENT tiger rescue in Thailand

Dear Carole and Howard,

It's Edwin Wiek here, founder of Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand. We have an urgent situation - 11 tigers from a tiger petting zoo that is shutting down need to be rescued and rehomed to our sanctuary asap. It will be the biggest tiger rescue ever in Thailand. However, due to COVID-19 and resulting lack of visitors and tourists, our funds are very low. Is there anything that Big Cat Rescue can do to help us get these 11 tigers out and to our large sanctuary?

The tigers are living in miserable conditions. One is reported to be dangerously skinny with concern that it survives until the rescue. It is unclear what level of care they will receive until rescued.

Wildlife Friends Foundation is highly respected by people we know and trust in the international animal welfare community. They have partially completed buildings and enclosures that were intended for a rescue from outside Thailand last year. COVID made that rescue impossible and the drop in sanctuary revenue from COVID stopped the construction.

They need funds to quickly complete the enclosures and then cover the cost of multiple trips to transport the animals from the zoo nine hours away, including full medical checkups before loading the animals. They expect to bring in the first three tigers by December 31 and have the rest safely at their sanctuary by January 10 with our help.

Two of our supporters have responded to this need with a combined $20,000 in matching funds that in effect doubles your donation. We have committed to do whatever is necessary to make this rescue happen and have already advanced funds to enable work to resume on the enclosures immediately.

We know many of you have already dug deep this year to help us weather the COVID challenge. For those of you who either have not donated yet this year or have room in the budget for additional gifts, please know that no amount is too small – the small gifts really do add up and each one helps when a situation like this arises.

We wish you all a safe and prosperous 2022 and thank you for whatever help you can be in making 2022 the year that changes forever the lives of these suffering tigers in Thailand who deserve so much better
