Tigers are part of national Cambodian heritage, like the temples at Angkor Wat. Conserving tigers means taking care of our heritage and authority.

Tigers bring the benefits of ecotourism. No tigers = no tourists or researchers.

Tigers benefit people by controlling prey populations. 90% of Cambodian people are farmers. If the population of ungulates in increasing, agricultural production will suffer.

If you think about it, local tigers can protect us. They help keep bandits and thieves out of the forest around our village.

Hunting tiger is hunting our forest god. [Implication: bad for your health]

Selling tiger skins and tiger bone for Khmer use or for foreigners is illegal and a serious crime.
