Tigers are in danger of extinction as global populations have plummeted by 96%. Help us protect them by adopting a tiger from just £3 per month.
Tigers are on the brink of extinction. Global populations have plummeted alarmingly by 96%, for all six-remaining subspecies. Three are now extinct. A combination of poaching, illegal captivity, and habitat destruction have contributed to their dwindling numbers, and it shows no signs of slowing down.
The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation fights for tigers on every battlefield, from the frontline to the world stage. Our commitment to protecting this iconic big cat from the threats driving it towards extinction is absolute. Our mission is to save this adored species – and we can’t do it without you.
Animal adoption is a fun and impactful way you can make a difference. Adopt a tiger for just £3 a month, and you’ll be supporting us as we carry out vital work to save this icon of our wild world.
Just £3 per month (or £36 one-off) could help local community engagement and raise awareness of tigers to achieve effective human wildlife coexistence.
Only £5 per month (or £47 one-off) could empower rangers with the skills they need to track and protect vulnerable tiger populations across India and Thailand.
With £10 per month (or £60 one-off) undercover investigations into the illegal wildlife trade could be funded bringing tiger trafficking syndicates to justice.
You’ll get a personalised certificate, species fact sheet, animal bio sheet, and a photograph. In addition we will send you bi-annual updates on our conservation work with your chosen species.

Adopting a tiger helps fund projects working with local communities to monitor tiger movements, reduce poaching, and raise awareness on the dangers of tiger extinction. In addition, your support can help us:
Kannika is a female Indochinese tiger. She is a rare and magnificent adult tiger who lives deep in Thailand’s eastern forests. Indochinese tigers are an endangered species with approximately only 220 left in the wild.
Indochinese tigers are native to tropical and subtropical forests of mainland Southeast Asia. Their fur is typically darker and shorter with narrow stripes, thought to help them better tolerate the heat and provide improved camouflage within the forest.
By adopting a tiger with DSWF, you are ensuring these rare tigers are protected and that rangers receive professional training and essential equipment, vital for successful patrols that will keep tigers, like Kannika, safe.
