3000 Riels Lost Tigers of Cambodia

Cambodia's Indochinese tiger was functionally extinct as a wild population by the mid-2000s, with the last confirmed sighting in a camera trap recorded in 2007. The species' collapse in Cambodia was driven largely by snare hunting and habitat fragmentation across the Cardamom Mountains — a loss that preceded any serious national conservation infrastructure.

The National Bank of Cambodia has issued wildlife-themed collector silver since the 1990s, often in partnership with foreign minting houses. The dual KM reference suggests a recognized variety exists within this release.
