Road could affect future tiger habitat
Cambodia’s recently approved road project leading to the border with Vietnam in Mondulkiri would do irreversible damage to the province’s protected forest and threaten future attempts to reintroduce tigers to the Kingdom, according to the World Wildlife Fund.
In a statement released yesterday, the group said the proposed Srea Ampom-Kbal Damrei road would have few economic and development benefits, while significantly harming natural resources and environmental capital.
