: The Malayan Tiger has increasingly become a victim of roadkill in recent times with six tiger deaths from 2023 to date, said Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad.
The statement follows a roadkill incident involving a female Malayan tiger on the East-West Gerik Highway in Perak on Nov 9, which is a tragedy for wildlife conservation efforts. “Since the beginning of its establishment in 2020, the number of community rangers has increased by 1,000 personnel in 2023, 2,000 in 2024 and further increased to 2,500 rangers next year with an allocation of RM80 million,“ he said.
