Siberian Tigers - Habitat
Siberian or Amur Tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) historically inhabited forests of eastern Asia, northern China, Korea and Manchuria. Siberian Tigers are found mostly in harsh and cold land, covered with snow for most of the year. The usual habitats of these animals are taiga and mixed deciduous and coniferous forests in mountain areas. The last viable population of Siberian Tigers survives in Ussuiland of Russia, which is situated along the Sikhote-Alin mountain range.

Siberian Tigers - Diet
Siberian Tigers are truly carnivores and hunt big game: various deer and wild boars. Occasionally Siberian Tigers eat fish. Being very large animals they need about 20 lbs of food every day to survive in the cold climate. At one meal a Siberian Tiger is able to consume up to 100 lbs of meat. Like all cats, Siberian Tigers stalk the prey and when the changes of a success are rather great, they pounce on the victim, bite it to the neck and suffocate it. Tigers drag the kill and hide it from other predators on the trees. If the animals cannot eat all the prey, it takes a nap and then finishes the meal off.
Siberian Tigers have a reputation of being vicious killers, because they spend much time hunting. But this reputation is not true-to fact. Siberian Tigers have to cover large distances searching for prey. Only 10% of all hunting trips are successful and usually elderly, young or ill animals fall a prey of Siberian Tigers.
