Siberian Tigers

Tigers are important to the ecosystem by controlling the levels of other animals within the food chain.

So if a tiger eats 7 rabbits a day, which in turn eat 7 carrots a day; removing the tiger effectively increases the carrot yield. And this theory can be applied to what ever comes earlier on in the food chain.

Tigers are endangered because, before they were protected, many people killed them and sold their skins as rugs, coats, curtains and many more things.

Answer

There are many other reasons why tigers are endangered. Another is that the Chinese believe that the tiger has medicinal properties. They kill the tigers, then grind their bones into a powder to increase bone density and strength. (it's all taboo, I don't know why they still believe this old myth) They also use...ehm...other body parts to increase fertility. It's really gross, but some of the Chinese are very stubborn and won't change their beliefs. People also kill tigers because they think they are a threat to the people and the livestock. When the people of a certain area need to expand into new areas, they turn once wild lands into villages and small towns. They either chase the prey of the tigers away or they hunt they prey as food until they are all gone. When this happens, the tigers run out of food and need to find a new food source. The only food left for them to eat is the domestic livestock owned by the people. Of course, this is located in the village, and the people take it personally and kill them.

Tiger's ineract with humans poorly. They are afraid of us. There are fewer and fewer of Tigers each day because we are using them fro meat and blankets. It also doesn't help that we are taking over their habitat.

most carnivorus cats

In 2005, there were 331–393 adult and subadult Siberian tigers in the China-Korea region, with a breeding adult population of about 250 individuals. As of 2015, there an estimated population of 480-540 individuals in the Russian Far East.

It must be bears, maybe even some wolf pack, but it is highly unlikely that they come across one another in Siberia, it is just too big.

the estimated length of a saber tooth tigers two front teeth are about one foot long and two inches wide

A heterotroph is a living organism which is considered to be a consumer, meaning that it requires organic material, called organic substrate, to gather carbon for growth. Because the white tiger is not a producer of energy in the food chain, gathering energy from an inorganic source (photosynthesis, etc), but a consumer of energy, it is a heterotroph. All animals in general are heterotrophic. Fungi and most bacteria are heterotrophic, and there are plants which are considered to be heterotrophic as well.

Tigers compete with other predators for environmental resources. Other predators include other carnivores such as lions, bears, or alligators. Tigers also compete with humans.

The gestation period (time of pregnancy) of a tiger is 104-106 days.

50-60 Thousand Siberian tigers get killed each year for hunting season :(

No, tigers do not hibernate. It is not a biological need of any members of the cat family.

A Siberian tiger needs to eat approximately 20 to 30lbs of meat a day just to survive. Their diet includes Deer, lynx, boar, elk, and bear. They will also eat small prey items such as Hares, rabbits, and fish.

The abiotic factors are rocks, water and nitrogen, shelters. The biotic factors are plants other animals.

Some of the best known international organizations working to save endangered species such as the Siberian Tigers include: The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, The World Wildlife Fund (WWF), United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and the Wildlife Conservation Society.

Tigers, like cougars and other big cats exempting lions, actually prefer to hunt on their own so that they don't have to share (they're quite greedy), so during spring and other times when prey is abundant they usually go off on their own or in pairs of a male and his mate. However, during heavy winters and other times of extreme famine, they have been known to hunt in packs, and live in that pack until the food shortage is over.

In the world there are many endangered species, such as the Siberian Tiger . To help the Siberian Tiger more laws need to be created against using tiger parts for Tradtional Chinese Medicines. One more thing is that it's habitat needs to be protected from poaching. Consrtuction of new roads need to be prevented from previously remote areas. These constructions need to be preventted because, they give poachers complete access to poach at previously remote areas. Another way we can help prevent the endangerment of Siberian Tigers is by putting a halt to poaching. If we advise people not to buy tiger furs, tiger parts, or any other tiger products, that will decrease the sales of tiger products, and the sales of a tiger. A Siberian Tiger alone is worth $50k in the international/black market. If people are not purchasing tiger products, the poachers will need to cut down on invetory, which in this case is the tiger. If we establish new breeding camps. That will help their recent numbers become increases which are stable at 350-450. Answred by Gr. 6 Deep.

The white tigers are bengals, not siberians, and none are currently in the wild. All are in captivity.

The Siberian Tiger can run, climb, leap, and swim. Tigers stalk and kill their prey alone.

Because the Siberian Tiger is the largest tiger in the world, it is also the rarest tiger in the world.

Siberian tigers in the harsh winter conditions of their homeland, take whatever shelter is available to hollow out a space to get out of the weather. This would include heavy thickets, caves, or even spaces around fallen trees.

its scientific name is Panthera Tigris altaica
