THE Malayan tiger, our national icon and a symbol of bravery, is teetering on the brink of extinction. With fewer than 150 individuals left in the wild, every loss devastates Malaysia’s biodiversity and cultural heritage.

Recent incidents in the Belum-Temengor Forest Complex lay bare a heartbreaking reality: human lives lost to tiger encounters, and tigers killed by vehicles on the Gerik-Jeli Highway. These tragedies are preventable, yet they persist.
