Saving The Last Sumatran Tigers (Hello Welcome To My Introduction Post )
Hello everyone !!
This is my very first time on steemit. Nice to finally make it here.I look forward to reading your posts and I hope you are interested in reading mine too.
I am the founder of a brand called Tigers Angels based in Melbourne Australia since 2008. We are a wildlife fashion brand that promotes saving tigers through fashion, films and events.
I have been involved in the fashion industry for over 20 years and the idea of helping save tigers came to me when I travelled to a place called Ubud on the island of Bali in Indonesia.
While on vacation one early morning at an organic cafe, I was waiting for my breakfast to be served. While I waited I decided to have a look around as the cafe had so many different areas filled with books and pictures of all sorts of interesting things. As I was roaming around enjoying the relaxed atmosphere I noticed a small doorway halfway up the wall. It was very small an odd, so I glanced through and what I noticed it was it lead to an outdoor tropical garden with a small bungalow on the side with all these SOS posters of pictures of Orangutans. So I ventured out to see what this was all about. I met a young woman from England who had set up a Save The Orangutan Society Information Centre. She was trying to raise funds for her cause she explained to me. As I scanned over the information I came across a picture of a Sumatran Tiger with the heading 'Critically Endangered Species' only 500 tigers left remaining in the wild. I was shocked and sadden to hear about a beautiful animal to be in such a dire state and on the brink of extinction. I went back to my table with a heavy heart and feeling sadden by what I had read but!! By the time I had finished my breakfast I had decided right then and there I would dedicate my life to help saving the Sumatran tigers and from that moment in time the the brand Tigers Angels was born. So that is my short story on how we came about the idea of saving tigers through fashion.
We have a Tigers Angels fashion website that promotes tiger awareness through apparel clothing and a seperate website called kingdom for animals which is a crowdfunding site that creates projects purely for raising funds for saving wild animals.
The Sumatran Tiger
There are fewer than 500 Sumatran Tigers left roaming the wild. They are the smallest out of all the tigers and are in the top ten most critical endangered species list.

Welcome to Steem @tigersangels I have upvoted and sent you a tip
Amazing :)
I like your introduction, so I also gave you an upvote.
Greetings tigersangels, I hope you enjoy it here!
I have observed that people get upset or frustrated when they ask someone to follow them, and that doesn’t occur. There was a reason, following someone was reserved for someone whom you identified with, or you enjoyed their posts, things of that nature.
That kind of following is almost negligible now, since everyone wants to be followed no matter what they have to offer. I have found a sort of solution.
Now days, I follow whomever I comment upon; no matter what. I ask too, that they follow me; I will up vote them as well, if they provide decent content. If I don’t really appreciate their posts, I mute them. Problem solved. So I will follow you, please follow me.
FYI: you actually get more rewards if you up vote others posts, and comment/reply to your own postings. In other words, the more people you help, the more people help you.
I, @carltong, have all kinds of information on my blog, including faucets for free coin. Check my blogs out for that data, as this welcome greetings is just that, a sincere welcome to the greatest social platform on Planet Earth.
I would share two more things with you; first and foremost AVOID BITCOINSBRAIN! It is a HYIP site that stole about $1000 from me. It is a scam. Here is my take on HYIP’s.
IF IT SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEN IT’S NOT TRUE!
I was so gullible on BitcoinsBrain, that I took all my other coins and invested them into this fund. I was still texting and sending messages a full two weeks after they quit paying me. I could not grasp that I had been ripped off.
Secondly, @jerrybanfield is perhaps the strongest Steemian on Steem today. Check his site out for a free tutorial on how to use Steem. I took it and have learned plenty.
I hope things go well for you on here and once again, WELCOME to STEEMIT!!!
Sincerely,
@carltong
PS: If you like recipes, try @nettikisses.
Hey @carltong thank you for the insight. I appreciate that information and will take it all on board. The reason Im on here is because of the youtube video I saw on @jerrybanfields page.
