Exploitation of plants and animals in Cambodia is devastating the region’s biodiversity. Populations of many Cambodian wildlife species, including tigers, Asian elephants and pangolins are declining sharply due to their high commercial value in the illegal wildlife trade. When possible, live animals are released back into the wild; for those animals that are too young, too socialized to humans or wounded, Wildlife Alliance provides lifetime care through the Care for Rescued Wildlife program.
Our animals thrive on a natural diet, world class veterinary care, and the knowledge and support of expert staff who have designed a rehabilitation program so that some of the animals may one day be released back into the wild.
Total Funding Received to Date: $10,254
Remaining Goal to be Funded: $385
Total Funding Goal: $10,639
This project has provided additional documentation in a PDF file (projdoc.pdf).
This project will improve the overall well-being of Cambodia’s wildlife through rescue, rehabilitation, and release into the wild and increase awareness within Cambodia of the fragility of the country's natural environment through outreach education.
“All the animals at the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Center are victims of the illegal animal trade or habitat loss. If it wasn’t for the center these animals would all likely be dead.”
