*****************************
Five Decades of Conservation: Spotlight on Tigers

In the 1970s tiger numbers were crashing in India. In response, WWF launche=
d Operation Tiger, dedicating $1 million for emergency action. In turn, the=
 Indian government launched Project Tiger and committed to rebuild tiger po=
pulations, establishing a network of tiger reserves. Today WWF is on the gr=
ound around the world--restoring habitats, combating poaching, and reducing=
 conflicts between humans and wildlife.

*****************************
Dear Earth,

From the archipelago of the Gal=E1pagos to the forests of Asia, we've accom=
plished so much at WWF with your steadfast support. And, as we honor our 50=
th Anniversary, we take a look now at our work protecting tigers.

Beginning with Operation Tiger in the 1970s, WWF's tiger conservation effor=
ts have significantly evolved in the past four decades of our work.  We've =
found that the way to ensure a future for tigers is to seek solutions in co=
llaboration with governments, local communities and other partners.

Today, we invest in strategies that range from income generation and altern=
ative livelihoods for people who live in tiger habitats, to lobbying at the=
 highest levels to secure wild spaces for this magnificent species and to e=
nd tiger trade.

Our goal is to double the number of tigers in the wild by the next Year of =
the Tiger, 2022. But we need continued support to meet this goal.

Will you make a monthly donation to WWF today in honor of our 50th annivers=
ary and our efforts to protect endangered species, like tigers, around the =
world?
http://wwf.worldwildlife.org/site/R?i=3D0Kp97zIdmK6iPhjZGsPYpA..

As a WWF supporter, YOU have played a vital leadership role in some of the =
most important conservation achievements of the last half century.  I thank=
 you for all you have done to make this moment possible.

To save tigers:

*  We helped bring the Amur tiger back from the brink of extinction, from 4=
0 individuals in the wild in the 1940s to 500 in the 1980s, thanks to vigor=
ous anti-poaching and other
conservation efforts by the Russian government and support from many partne=
rs.

*  We were instrumental in creating a 2.5 million acre area of connected an=
d contiguous tiger habitat in Cambodia, which not only restores precious ti=
ger habitat but also creates a viable area to develop an income-generating =
ecotourism industry in the region. Tigers have already made a comeback in t=
his newly protected habitat and are now being monitored carefully.

*  And, just this past year, we saw success at the International Tiger Cons=
ervation Forum, where significant new funding was committed by governments =
for tiger conservation and all 13 countries that still have wild tigers com=
mitted to double the
population of wild tigers in the next 12 years.

But our work doesn't end with these accomplishments. Our work with tigers--=
and other threatened species around the world--is ongoing. And, we need you=
r support to help continue our vital efforts.

As we look to the next 50 years, including the critical months ahead, we kn=
ow that there remains so much we must do to help save tigers and other thre=
atened species. So many species now face urgent threats. And so I ask you t=
o please take action on this historic occasion by making a generous anniver=
sary donation to WWF.
http://wwf.worldwildlife.org/site/R?i=3DwsQXAYS6lsUSg3kYBSB41Q..

We will put your monthly donation to work funding some of the critical, ong=
oing WWF conservation initiatives that I believe people will be writing abo=
ut 50 years from now--from the protected waters of the Gal=E1pagos to the f=
orests of Asia where tigers still roam free.

Help WWF make history again. Our work protecting tigers is but one of hundr=
eds examples of our dedication and passion. Together we can protect species=
 from extinction, preserve extraordinary habitats, and leave future generat=
ions a world of thriving biodiversity.

Sincerely,

Terry Macko
Vice President Membership and Marketing

P.S. Continue your support of our global conservation efforts and make a mo=
nthly donation to WWF today in honor of our 50th anniversary. As a token of=
 our thanks, you will be able to select a special free gift.
