Endangered Siberian Tiger
The endangered siberian tiger is threatened by farms as farm extension causes habitat loss.
These animals are the biggest of all the other kinds and they are adapted to living in the cold and taiga where the temperatures fall to 40 degrees Celsius. They are good hunters that are very beautiful and regal. These felines have a dense and thick orange coat with dark strips. The coat becomes reddish in summer and turns pale in winter. Amur species usually mate in winter, and cubs are born after the gestation period of 103 days.

Nowadays, these animals are on the verge of extinction as they were hunted and killed for different purposes. In China, for instance, these animals were killed because Traditional Chinese Medicine required parts of the species as elements of composing the drugs. There are less than 200 species left in the wild, and around 250 captive animals are kept in zoos. After World War II, they almost disappeared from the wild, but the Soviet government took measures to restore their population. Today, these animals are suffering a massive devastation from poaching and illegal trade. The endangered siberian tiger is threatened by farms as farm extension causes habitat loss.
