Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

Achievement and Performance

Charitable activities

To achieve For Tigers’ objectives, we identified the fundamental activities that are the core of all For Tigers’ activities. These include direct aid, research and resource development, partnership networks and public awareness.

For the year ended December 2021:

Objective: Direct Aid

Achievement: This year, For Tigers continued its collaboration with the Department of National Parks (DNP). Due to the pandemic, enclosures and larger construction works could not be performed. However, due to increasing budget cuts, the two facilities required aid in feeding the tigers in their care. To that end, For Tigers funded weekly chicken donations over a period of 12 weeks.

For Tigers also liaised with, and provided information and expertise on the building of an enclosure in Chitwan National Park, Nepal for a wildcaught tiger. Though not in our usual jurisdiction, this was an emergency request. The aim here was to ensure the wild-caught tiger had an appropriate living space in which to live out the rest of his life. Objective: Research and resource development Achievement: During this financial year, our staff attended the South East Asian Zoo Association (SEAZA) Annual conference, the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums (EAZA), the Anthrozoology Conference and the Global Animal Training Summit in order to gain a better understanding of welfare issues, discuss potential steps that could be taken and to network with like-minded organisations and NGOs. During the year, only a small number of facilities were visited and assessed due to the ongoing pandemic and the fact that numerous facilities were closed to the public. For the few facilities visited, researchers used the same basic animal welfare assessment form created and implemented in 2019. Objective: Partnership networks

Achievement: A new potential partnership is now in the works. For Tigers is currently creating a captive tiger enrichment programme alongside Wildlife Reserves Singapore (WRS) in order to create a programme that can be implemented anywhere in the world, but with particular focus on those facilities that have a lower welfare understanding or do not have such expansive budgets. For Tigers continues to remain open to any new partnerships and collaborations, particularly with tiger facilities aiming to improve the welfare of their tigers and potentially to change their business model.

Section D Achievements and performance

Objective: Public Awareness Achievement: For Tigers always strives to provide clear and objective information regarding tiger welfare at the facilities across Thailand. This is disseminated via regular newsletters, a website blog and the responsible use of various social media channels. In addition, we held our fourth fundraising event, this year in virtual form, which was key to communicating many of the welfare issues prevalent across Thailand’s tiger facilities. All of our communication with the public is designed to raise effective awareness of welfare issues, elicit positive change and also to secure on going income for our work. Social media is particularly pertinent in these areas so we are continuing to grow our audience and interaction in these areas.

Future Plans 2022

We plan to continue our direct support of the two Department of National Parks (DNP) facilities housing confiscated tigers in order to continue improving and upgrading their current facilities.
• We plan to move forward with a potential collaboration regarding welfare policies with Wild Welfare.
We plan to create further, and continuous updated educational material to aid tourists in choosing welfare-friendly captive tiger venues.
We aim to create educational and/or training material such as enrichment guides, body condition guides, and detailed tiger ethograms that can be delivered to staff working with tigers in Thai venues.
All educational and training material is planned to be translated into Thai (for venue staff) as a priority, and following that, into various other languages including Mandarin, Russian, Hindi and French in order to reach, and educate, a wider range of tourist groups.
We will continue to develop additional research opportunities with zoos and NGO partners.
We will identify facilities willing to accept support, aid and advice to become more welfare aware.
We intend to continue working with the tiger venue, supporting their progress and transition.
