Abstract
In the mid 2000s, the Wildlife Conservation Society started investing on a long-term project protecting orang-utans in Sarawak and tigers in Southern Peninsular Malaysia. The work included anti-poaching patrols, field surveys to determine the population of these targeted species as well as soliciting support from the communities via conservation education. Empirical data from the field is shown.
