In celebration of July 29^th's Tiger Day, we need your help in dubbing the Tiger King and Queen! Not only will the elected royals represent the Refuge on Tiger Day, but they will also have the honor of symbolizing progress on our new well/water system project, an undertaking that will help Survivors of the Exotic Pet Trade for years to come!

All proceeds support fundraising efforts on a new well and water system for the Refuge. Without it's creation, we cannot expand our property and would be unable to comply with a large-scale rescue effort that requires extra hands-on-deck! To learn more about the project, please visit tcwr.org/well.


Voting runs from now until 11:59:59 PM on July 28^th. The winners will be announced on Tiger Day, July 29^th!

You are welcome to cast as many votes as you wish for $1 a vote- they can all go towards the same animal or between multiple different animals.

Tip: Get your friends and family in on the fun! Share the contest on social media or via email to help your favorite tigers earn the rank of royalty!

Prizes: The Tiger King and Queen will get a fun enrichment prize as part of their "coronation ceremony!"
