The Sumatran tiger’s story is a story of a vanishing roar, of stripes disappearing into silence, of a ruler forced from its throne. But it does not have to be the final chapter.
We still have a choice. We can allow the last of Indonesia’s tigers to slip into history, joining the Bali and Javan tigers in extinction. Or we can stand together and write a different ending—one of resilience, recovery, and hope.
“Wildlife in Crisis” is not just a phrase for reports and campaigns. It is a plea from the forest itself, a reminder that when we lose wildlife, we lose part of ourselves. Saving the Sumatran tiger is not only about conserving a species. It is about protecting forests, water, air, and the future of generations to come.
Because in truth, the tiger is not only the guardian of the forest. It is also the guardian of us all, and of Indonesia’s natural pride. As long as there is even one roar left in the forest, there is still hope. And hope, like the tiger, deserves to live.
