NOTES FROM THE FIELD | 2024 | No. 13
A Welcome New Arrival
[link removed]
In this season of
Thanksgiving, there's something new to be grateful
for: a critically
endangered Sumatran
tiger cub. Born to
first-time
mother Jillian at the
San
Diego Zoo Safari
Park, this nearly
three-month-old male
cub, named Barong, is thriving. Jillian is a very
attentive mom, and
she's had her paws full as Barong, which means "the
king of
spirits," busily pounces, tumbles, and explores his big new
world.

Barong's arrival
was also a joyous moment for conservationists. Only an
estimated 400 to 600
Sumatran
tigers remain in
their native Sumatra, an
island in Indonesia,
so every birth is a critical addition. Barong's
birth also adds vital
genetic diversity to help ensure the future health
of the species, as
Jillian's genes were previously unrepresented in the
global population.

Today, Sumatran
tigers face many
threats, including disappearing and
fragmented habitats,
wildlife trafficking, and increasing challenges to
human-wildlife
coexistence. With your support, we're working with
partners to foster
coexistence
strategies for
people sharing the
landscape with
tigers, and monitoring tiger movement to better
understand their
habitat use. As a wildlife ally, you make it all
possible. Find out
more about how you're helping save Sumatran tigers
through our Asia
Conservation Hub.

READY FOR THE FEAST
As you're
preparing to sit down for Thanksgiving dinner, the biggest
meal of the year for
many Americans, you might be surprised to learn
that some wildlife
species dine on gigantic feasts of their own. From
African
lions that consume
up to 88 pounds of meat after a hunt to
Tasmanian
devils that can
eat meals weighing nearly half as much as they
do, read on for more
about wildlife that enjoy a feast.

FOR THE BIRDS
Turkey may be the
"bird of the month," but we're also thankful for a
recovering Southern
California bird: the San Clemente loggerhead
shrike.
This endangered
songbird is native only to San Clemente Island, and in
the 1990s, the shrike
population dropped to just 14 birds. With your
support, we're
working with partners to save, protect, and care for them
through our Pacific
Islands
Conservation Hub.
