Guide 1

What Tiger Sponsorship Through WARN Means

Tiger sponsorship is recurring support pooled into partner grants for anti-poaching patrols, snare removal and conflict response — not co-sponsorship of a named tiger you visit or own.

Guide 2

How to Start Tiger Sponsorship from the UK

Visit adopt a tiger, choose monthly or one-off from £5/month, pay in GBP, receive email receipt.

Guide 3

What Your Tiger Sponsorship Pays For

Sponsorship income funds patrol support, snare removal from corridors, conflict response when tigers approach farms, and emergency veterinary response for snared tigers.

Guide 4

Sumatran and Malayan Tiger Programmes

Fewer than 150 Malayan tigers may survive in Peninsular Malaysia; roughly 400 Sumatran tigers remain in Indonesia. See tiger appeal and Indonesia.

Guide 5

Snares and Poaching Pressure

Wire snares set for bushmeat kill tigers indiscriminately. Patrol teams find and remove snares — sponsorship helps sustain year-round patrol capacity.

Guide 6

Monthly Versus One-Off Tiger Sponsorship

Monthly from £5 at adopt a tiger gives partners predictable patrol budgets. One-off gifts at tiger appeal suit urgent veterinary response.

Guide 7

Gift Tiger Sponsorship for UK Occasions

Checkout at adopt a tiger, email WARN for a certificate. Honest programme framing — not individual tiger ownership.

Guide 8

Gift Aid and WARN Registration

WARN is a registered UK Community Interest Company (Company no. 17298990) and is not a charity, so it cannot claim Gift Aid. The donation case is transparent partner-led welfare where support reaches practical field needs. Tiger sponsorship is not Gift Aid eligible. Compare adopt a tiger.

Wildlife guide

Tiger

A tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest living cat species, a striped, solitary carnivore native to Asia; the Sumatran tiger of Indonesia and the Malayan tiger of Malaysia are two of the most endangered surviving populations, both listed as Critically Endangered.

Country programme

Indonesia

Indonesia is a Southeast Asian archipelago of more than 17,000 islands, home to Bornean and Sumatran orangutans, Sumatran tigers, Javan and Sumatran rhinos, the Komodo dragon and the sun bear; its wildlife is under sustained pressure from palm-oil and pulpwood deforestation, the illegal pet trade, and one of the world's largest contributions to marine plastic.

Country programme

Malaysia

Malaysia is a Southeast Asian range state for Bornean orangutans (Sabah), sun bears, Sunda pangolins, clouded leopards and the Malayan tiger; it is a top-tier transit country for trafficked wildlife, with Kuala Lumpur's airports and the Port Klang container hub repeatedly identified by UNODC as wildlife-crime chokepoints.
