WWF camera traps have captured a record number of images of critically endangered Sumatran tigers recently – 12 tigers in just two months in central Sumatra. The great footage includes two mothers with cubs and three young tiger siblings playfully chasing a leaf. But the forest they’re in is under imminent threat of being cleared by the pulp and paper industry, despite being a “global priority Tiger Conservation Landscape”.
