Wildlife Conservation Society's Run for the Wild at the Bronx Zoo

Hello everyone,
Join me in helping to save tigers one step at a time! On April 24, I'll be prowling through the Bronx Zoo as part of the Wildlife Conservation Society's second annual Run for the Wild, a 5K run/walk at the Bronx Zoo. This year's theme is "Tracks for Tigers".  All the funds raised by participants will go toward the Wildlife Conservation Society's myriad projects to protect the endangered tiger and the places it calls home.

Did you know that there are only a few thousand tigers left in the wild? Human development, dwindling prey populations and continued threats from poachers have all contributed to the decline of their populations across Asia.

With your support, I hope to reach my goal. Even $10 will make a big difference for tigers. The donations I collect will help support WCS's efforts to create protected areas for these striped beauties, stop illegal poaching, boost prey populations, and collaborate with local governments, business leaders and communities to manage human activity in tiger habitats.

Thanks in advance for your generosity and your commitment to protecting tigers. I'll keep your posted on my paw-gress!
