Today, we raise our voices for tiger conservation! Tigers are crucial for maintaining the balance of their ecosystems, but their populations are declining due to habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict.

In Kerala, the Parambikulam and Periyar Tiger Reserves are champions of tiger conservation. Parambikulam, located on the Kerala-Tamil Nadu border, excels in biodiversity and anti-poaching efforts. Periyar, nestled in the Western Ghats, is a sanctuary for the Bengal tiger and many other endangered species. Both reserves are essential for preserving our ecological balance and ensuring the survival of these magnificent animals.

Let’s support and celebrate the efforts to protect tigers and their habitats!
