Being the largest cat species, tigers are majestic, regal and breathtakingly beautiful when seen in their natural habitat. Unfortunately, our favourite forest animal is at risk of being extinct as they fall victim to deadly snares set up in their homes by ruthless poachers. In conjunction with the International Tiger’s Day on the 30th of September, we at DealMates, have joined hands with WWF-Malaysia to help save Malaysia's natural treasure, The Malayan tiger. Here’s how you can play a role in helping our Malayan tigers roam free in the forest, their home:

• A donation of just RM10
• Your donation can help WWF acquire equipment, vital to anti-poaching work
• Your support can help save the lives of our tigers, eradicate poaching with the ultimate goal of putting an end to illegal wildlife trade
• For every donation of RM10, get a limited edition WWF button badge
