Do you know any animal lovers aged 18-22? WWF is offering a trip of a lifetime! They're looking for two young people to join them at the Tiger Youth Summit in Russia this September – and generally to help spread the word about tiger conservation work.
Here's a chance to make a real difference to tiger conservation, in person. With as few as 3,200 tigers left in the wild, world leaders are meeting up in St Petersburgh in Russia this September to draw up plans to double tiger numbers by 2022.
At the same time there's a Youth Tiger Summit in Vladivostok in the Russian Far East – close to some active tiger habitats. And the WWF will select two 18-22 year olds from the UK to join other young people from all over the world at the summit.
They'll get to visit tiger habitats, learn first-hand about the threats facing this iconic species, and see what WWF is doing to protect it. When they get back home, they can blog about their experiences – and help to make it clear to world leaders that the next generation is counting on them to save the tiger!
Find out more – or apply right now for a chance to visit Russia and help save the tiger.
