Is the Sumatran Tiger still alive?

Answer 1

Only in the genes of the Siberian. Proof exists today that these two sub species share nearly all of the same genetic markers, making them not sub specific, but merely geographic races, of the same sub species.

Answer 2

· Caspian Tiger also known as Persian Tiger, Turanian Tiger, Mazandaran Tiger, Myrcanian Tiger - Iran, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Turkey, Mongolia, Kasakhstan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistand, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan

Answer 3

They are considered extinct, however there are a number of animals that we thought were extinct, but we ended up discovering them alive (IE, ivory billed woodpecker, ceolocanth, etc). There have been reported sightings of the Caspian tiger since they were declared extinct, however there wasn't enough evidence to prove that it existed. And they could be existing in any isolated area between China, Iran, and the Caspian Sea. So there is certainly a chance that the Caspian tiger could still be alive.

Answer 4

Yes. The total population is around 500 animals.
