Our Current and past Charity NGO Partners
The Environmental Investigation Agency UK (EIA)
The EIA was formed in 1984, sparking national outcry after documenting the brutal slaughter of pilot whales in the Faroe Islands. The EIA uses undercover investigations with hidden filming, fake companies and detective work to expose environmental crimes and abuses of the natural world. Investigators often work in dangerous circumstances to gather evidence. SWT funds are spent on vital investigations which collect intelligence and exposing the criminal networks that exploit the tiger trade to such deadly effect.
The EIA work with enforcement professionals who can take action on the frontline, decision-makers in government who can allocate resources and support for enforcement. EIA have been a SWT partner since our formation.
Previous funds raised by Save Wild Tigers contributed to critical wildlife crime related research and field investigations which led to the publishing of ‘Hidden in plain sight’.

The Habitat Foundation Malaysia– (THF)
One of the primary areas of focus for THF is to restore degraded critical habitats in tiger landscapes in the forested areas of Pahang.
The project aims to restore degraded forest areas within the recently gazetted Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve and its buffer areas in Pahang. Endangered varieties of wild fruit trees that used to be found in this area will be planted in order to enrich the area with the food plants of wildlife, including birds, primates, small mammals, and wild boar and deer which are important prey species of the critically endangered Malayan tiger. The aim of the project is habitat enrichment for native wildlife within an area which is of high importance for biodiversity.
