EcoBuddies Adopts Tiger Cub Rory!

Amazing news Buddies! With the money we raised from July's Buddies for Baby Animals Day
we have adopted Rory, a beautiful tiger cub that is being protected by the Sumatran Tiger Trust. The money raised will ensure that Rory and other Sumatran Tigers are kept safe in their habitats. Doesn't Rory look like such a strong and healthy tiger? I love him!
The Sumatran Tiger Trust is an organization that focuses on ensuring that Sumatran Tigers are safe in the wild through keeping their habitats safe from logging, development, and poaching. The Tiger Trust also helps researchers to study the tigers in their natural environment, so that we know how to keep them safe. To learn more about the Sumatran Tiger Trust please visit: http://www.tigertrust.info/sumatran_tiger_home.asp. You can even adopt a tiger of your very own!

Thanks to all of you who participated in voting and buying memberships on the 20th! Remember, we are voting now for the animal we will support in August. Vote in the poll at the top of this blog! On the 20th day of each month is Buddies for Baby Animals Day. On this day, 10% of the money made from new membership purchases is donated to an organization that supports an animal that our players choose.

Yay Buddies!

Quick Tips: Saving Water

Courtesy of steved_np3 on sxc.hu

It seems like the water that we use at home can never run out, but it's actually a lot of work to get it to your tap. Some of the ways we get water, such as redirecting rivers, can be very harsh on the environment. That's why it's always important to conserve the water we use. Here's a quick tip. When you brush your teeth, do you let the faucet run? Instead, try to only turn on the tap to wet your toothbrush and when you rinse it off. It may seem like you're not helping, but if everybody makes small changes it can make a big difference!

Tigers for Silver Stream!

Thanks to margan3 for the picture from www.sxc.hu

Silver Stream is right! Tigers are so amazing. Did you know that they have stripes for camouflage and that no two tigers have the same markings on their fur? Tiger's tails are three to four feet long and help them to balance when they make a sharp turn while running. I think the funniest thing about tigers is that their paw prints are called pug marks. Hee hee.
Tigers eat as much as 40 pounds of meat in one sitting. Whoa! But if they eat a lot in one sitting they will not eat for a few days.
Tiger's have about 2-3 cubs at a time. They are born blind and weigh about 2 pounds each. It takes about 18 months until they are ready to make their first kill.
Tigers live all over Asia and are an endangered species. This is because people kill them for their fur and also because their habitats (a habitat is the place where they live) are being ruined by people who take the trees and food away that surround their homes.
We should do everything we can to help tigers! They are so beautiful and fuzzy. Have any of you ever seen one in real life?

Stay Green! Violet
