Guest: Lara Ariffin, Founder, Renee Aziz Ahmad, Secretary, RIMAU

Just last month, on Malaysia Day no less, news broke of a horrific poaching case in Johor, where authorities discovered the carcass of a Malayan tiger stuffed in the boot of a car. The animal had suffered injuries from a trap and six gunshot wounds before its death, a brutal reminder of the grave threats facing our national treasure. With fewer than 150 Malayan tigers left in the wild, every loss is devastating. One of the organisations on the frontlines of protecting these critically endangered cats is RIMAU, and we speak the organisation's founder, Lara Ariffin, to discuss the latest on tiger conservation, the challenges of tackling poaching, and how RIMAU is working with different stakeholders to safeguard the future of our wild tigers.
