The World’s Last Tigers Face a Deadly Threat

The World’s Last Tigers Face a Deadly ThreatWildlife Vets International is working on vital research to fight Canine Distemper Virus. 

Donate £5 a month today to help us protect tigers before it’s too late.

Celebrating the Year of the Tiger 2022

Tigers are already endangered by poaching, habitat loss, and human conflict. Now, a new deadly threat has emerged: Canine Distemper Virus (CDV). CDV spills over from dogs to wild big cats — and has already killed tigers in the wild.

With a mortality rate of up to 30%, CDV could tip the balance toward extinction.

Wildlife Vets International is leading critical research to develop rapid diagnostic tools that can detect CDV in the field. This will help conservationists protect tigers before it’s too late. 

Your donation helps to support groundbreaking science that could save the world’s remaining tigers from this deadly disease. Every £50 helps fund diagnostic tools. Every £100 trains wildlife vets on the frontlines. Every gift brings us closer to saving tigers.
