Many of natures most beautiful and precious animals are on the verge of extinction due to the destruction of their habitat and illegal hunting and poaching. In order to help the Bengal Tiger and other endangered species survive, world-renowned magician Dirk Arthur has established his own captive breeding program.

All the animals in the breeding program and in the illusions used in his production show, Xtreme Magic Starring Dirk Arthur at the Tropicana, were born in captivity, meaning that the limited numbers of animals remaining in the wild were not affected. Dirk Arthur hopes that one day, where and whenever possible, he can assist in re-populating these very rare creatures in their natural environments.

Along with his Bengal Tigers and African Leopards, Dirk Arthur’s White Bengal Tigers and Snow Tigers are indisputably one of the Earth’s most striking and noteworthy species. It is this fact that helps him greatly in his endangered species education efforts, as he diligently strives to increase public awareness.

All of his animals are under strict veterinary care, and lead healthy, happy, productive lives, receiving abundant exercise including running, playing, and swimming.

You too can help by supporting the wildlife conservation laws of your state and federal government, and by supporting international programs that are working to preserve the forests, jungles, and animals of the world.
