"Today is World Tiger Day" Everland's Tiger Conservation Activities View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] Everland announced that on the 29th, 'International Tiger Day,' an ice enrichment activity to help tigers stay cool during the summer was held at the zoo's Tiger Valley.


International Tiger Day was designated in 2010 when 13 countries where tigers live gathered for the 'Tiger Summit' to jointly commit to conserving wild tigers, which are gradually disappearing due to poaching and habitat destruction.


During the event held at Everland Zoo's Tiger Valley, zookeepers created ice toys on the shelter in the enclosure for the baby tigers born last year to play with enjoyably. Additionally, a special talk program was conducted where zookeepers explained the ecological characteristics of tigers and shared efforts to conserve endangered tigers directly with visitors.



Meanwhile, Everland Zoo supports the Korea Tiger Conservation Fund and has installed a tiger conservation education center next to Tiger Valley. The center introduces conservation research methods through video materials, tiger footprints, and excrement, raising awareness among visitors about the importance of protecting endangered animals.
