CAT Walks in Sungai Yu Tiger Corridor
2012  Cat News (56): 9-11

Malaysia one of the most mega-diverse countries, is showing sign of the empty forest syndrome; its 130 million year old forests are being emptied out by systematic poaching of commercially valuable species. Besides strengthening law enforcement, it is critical to engage members of the public to bring about the change needed in our society. Using the Malayan tiger as the flagship species, MYCAT expands its citizen conservation programme towards ending the societally endorsed passivity towards wildlife conservation and strives to save large expanses of living forests rich in biodiversity.
