Ban the Tiger Trade

There are said to be more tigers living in captivity in the US than there are left in the wild. Lax regulations mean that authorities have no way of knowing who owns captive tigers or what happens to their body parts when they die. These gaps in US regulations could make tigers held in captivity a target for illegal trade. The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation as initiated Tiger Time- a campaign to raise awareness about the plight of these captive animals. Photographer Suzi Eszterhas committed to the conservation of the wild animals she photographs as well as the treatment of animals no longer living free.
