Two reasons why Siberian Tigers endangered?
Overhunting was an early reason for the decline of this species, Indian princes and foreign hunters took an enormous toll of the great cats in the 1800's to mid 1900's.
As the human population expanded, more land was cleared for settlements and crops, meaning less land for tigers. Conflicts occured, and the tiger was the loser. Finally, quack Chinese medicines made from tiger body parts led to a lucrative poaching trade, pressuring the tigers even more. Today, Bengal tigers are afforded the strictest protection, and the last survey showed an increase in their numbers, up to around 1800 from a low of around 1411.

What is the bite force of a Siberian tiger?
According to the "animal face-off" series, a male tiger has an impressive bite force of 1000 pounds. This is equal to 453 kg, and it means that it can cut through bone. There are indeed cases of male tigers that pierced through the skulls of other male tigers with their canines, during territorial fights. The lion has also the same bite force. In the "animal face-off" series, it was stated that scientists have developed a statistical formula to measure the bite force; Bite force = 2 (M x m+ T x t) / Length U, according to which, the bite force for both the tiger and the lion is 1000 pounds. However, the bite force is not the same for all tigers (and lions). It depends on the size, strength, age (etc) of the particular individual. Hyenas have a greater bite force than tigers (and lions). However, a tiger's bite (or a lion's bite) is much more devastating than a hyena's bite, because of the larger teeth that a tiger (or a lion) has.

It has been my experience that all cats get over skittishness behavior. It just takes a lot of patience and letting it decide when to make up to you. I took someone else's cat and it took 3 years for it to warm up to me and change its ways from the previous owner. The cat I took was 2 years old at the time I got it. Some cats remember things that happened to them and relate back when you force them to behave the way you would like. If it is important to you, then a dog would be a better pet. Cats are very independent creatures. I once had a cat who was totally wild and terrified of humans when I got her. I started out by going behind the couch and just sitting near her, letting her get used to seeing me, without me touching her, and I would talk softly to her as I did this. Then I progressed to laying my hand on the floor and putting it nearer to her each time she would get used to it enough to relax. Eventually I worked up to touching her once, then more and more over time. It took me two and a half months before she was climbing in my lap and purring like I was her best friend. You may not have as much time to work with your cat as I had, but if you do, this method worked for me. One thing that also may help is offering him food and/or catnip. If he learns to associate you with the food or the pleasure of catnip, he may learn to think of you as a person he wants to be around. Try to avoid making loud noises around him or sudden movements, especially while trying to get him used to you.
I dont think so. I'm pretty sure they don't urinate from two at one time!
