What is WPO?This planet was created with various environments and

numerous species that inhabit them. All of the creatures

of this world were intended to live in harmony. Wildlife

Protection Organization (WPO) is a non-profit organization

that specializes in wilderness conservation. Our goal

is to create a world where humans and nature can live

cohesively. We strive to protect what is left of our natural

world and present its true beauty. To do so, we must

preserve Earths most prominent ecosystems and protect

the animals we care about.

Tigers are one of the most admired animals in the kingdom, yet their

numbers are dwindling. There are as few as 3,200 tigers in the wild

today.

Eastern HimalayasThe eastern Himalayas is a vast mountain range that

stretches across Nepal, Bhutan, northest India, southeast

Tibet and northern Myanmar. The range is home to various

endangered species including the snow leopard, Bengal

tiger and one-horned rhino. The Himalayas is the highest

mountain range in the world, and home to 9 out of the 10

of the highest mountain peaks in the world. The region

contains 10,000 types of plants, 300 mammals, 977 birds,

176 reptiles, 105 amphibians, and 269 freshwater fish.

The grassland harbors the densest population of Bengal

tigers and the mountain range shelters the red panda.

As this is another region that faces the threat of habitat

loss, it also faces climate change. Not only is the climate

well. Melting glaciers are forming lakes prone to flooding.

Warmer temperatures have also brought in invasive insects

and diseases to new areas.
