Camera traps set up after tiger seen by roadside in Fraser’s Hill
Wildlife officials set up four camera traps after photographs were posted on social media on the tiger sighting.
A Malayan tiger was spotted near the Raub-Kuala Kubu Baru road, prompting swift action from wildlife officials. The news, shared on Facebook, prompted Pahang's wildlife director, Yusoff Shariff, to install four camera traps in the area after receiving the report at around 9am the previous day. Four officers investigated the sighting and set up the cameras, with monitoring set to continue to gather more information about the tiger's presence.
Several photos of the tiger have been circulated online, eliciting a range of reactions from the public. Classified as critically endangered, the Malayan tiger, Malaysia's national animal, is a subspecies native to the peninsula and, as of April 2014, the population was estimated to consist of 80–120 mature individuals.
