Siberian Tiger Animal
The siberian tiger, animal of a great magnitude, is subject to conservation planning, as both adults and baby tigers face many threats.
As they were thought to be dangerous for man and his household there was extensive hunting for these animals aiming at their extermination. Other reasons for the extinction of these cats are medical purposes and hunting for the coat. Their body parts and whiskers are popular among Chinese folk medicine men, and this medicine market has taken its toll on all the remaining subspecies. The Amur subspecies used to be common in China and Korea, but nowadays, these animals can only be found in the Sikhote-Alin reserve of Russia.

Siberian Tiger Animal -
conservation, baby
People were always afraid of these animals as they considered them to be man-eaters, but that is not true as the predator hunts and kills only for food and not for the sake of hunting. However, these cats may attack humans as well in the cases when they are weak and cannot get another prey. Healthy felines prefer not to encounter humans and avoid contacts with them. Actually, an attack against a human is an exception to the rule, and this happens very rarely. In order to avoid sad consequences of a feline-human encounter, man must be very cautious in areas where these animals are likely to live and breed.
