Samara, whose instagram handle is the wonderful @disneyrainbowunicornfangirl is the winner of our third adopt a spirit animal competition. As Easter approaches, we take the courage of the Tiger to face the challenges of new life like mowing the lawn and waxing the bikini line.
Jaya's (Samara's adopted tiger) family, the Sumatran Tiger is classified as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List. He lives with Terima at Manor Wildlife Park.
Since 1978 the wild population has plummeted to 1000 individuals to just 400. This dramatic decrease is down in part to the massive habitat loss seen throughout their historical range, with 93% of their preferred habitat having been destroyed over the last 100 years. This, coupled with pressured from poaching paints a pretty bleak picture for these amazing animals.
By adopting a tiger, you’re putting money towards the park’s vital conservation work as well as the work of the charity Wildcats Conservation Alliance; safeguarding the future of these amazing animals.
We will be running our fourth adoption prize in May 2022 for a panda, the spirit of good luck.
