The population of the Amur tiger is growing, a majestic feline that lives in the taiga of the Russian Far East.

The Amur tiger or Siberian tiger is a rare subspecies of tiger, a carnivorous mammal of the Felidae family.

Its current population - stable or modestly recovering after a long period of decline - has a few hundred specimens widespread mainly in the Russian Far East and, to a lesser extent, in the border area with Manchuria and North Korea.

The Amur tiger differs from the other tiger subspecies also in the coat, with lighter shades with dark brown stripes instead of black.

Such a beautiful animal. I'm glad to hear the population is recovering... but I sure wouldn't want to run into one in person!
