This biodiversity hotspot safeguards vulnerable, endangered and critically endangered species, enhances local livelihoods, and contributes to Pahang’s economy through tourism and green finance.
The Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve in the heart of Pahang constitutes the most important stronghold in Malaysia for the Malayan tigers, and is critical to conserving a viable population of the Malayan tigers in their natural habitat.
The Tiger Reserve covers some 1,340 square kilometres, comprising the Gunung Aais and Tekai-Tembeling forest reserves. The first of its kind in Malaysia and South East Asia, and one of the last pristine tracts of rainforest in Malaysia, it provides a secure habitat and landscape connectivity to support the natural recovery of the critically endangered Malayan tiger population and other endangered species, including the Asian elephant, Malayan tapir, Asian dhole, White-handed gibbon, Pig-tailed macaque and Dusky leaf monkey.
