What dangers does a Siberian tiger face?
Although the species has made a good comeback, there is still a poaching problem in some areas.
Why are Siberian tigers becoming extinct?
In the 1940s the Amur tiger was on the brink of extinction, with no more than 40 tigers remaining in the wild. Thanks to vigorous anti-poaching and other conservation efforts by the Russians with support from many partners, including WWF, the Amur tiger population recovered and has remained stable throughout the last decade or so.
But poaching of tigers and its prey, increased logging and construction of roads, forest fires and inadequate law enforcement are threats that affect the survival of the species.
WWF, in partnership with Russian authorities and other NGOs, is helping establish an ecological network of protected areas (Econet) to secure well-connected habitat for the Amur tiger, funds anti-poaching patrols in the Russian Far East and supports an ungulate recovery programme. WWF is collaborating with the Russian authorities and other partners in the recent survey of Amur tigers.
The latest figures on the Siberian tiger show the animal has rebounded to a population of nearly 600.

Are Siberian tigers nocturnal?
Siberian Tigers sleep a very long time, typically about 18 to 20 hours a day. They sleep on rocks, in grass in their wild habitat, next to their prey or wherever they feel the need to rest. Tigers typically do not spend more energy than what's needed, because if they spend more energy, they require more food. Tigers usually sleep after they make a kill and eat. Because a tiger can feed off of one large prey for a number of days, a tiger generally eats as much as he can and then rests or sleeps near the prey until ready to gorge again. Tigers rest by their prey to keep other predators from taking their food. Once a tiger eats all the prey, the tiger rests and sleeps. When he awakens, the tiger begins his search again for more food.

Are there Siberian tigers in Alaska?
Yes it is possible to release Siberian Tigers into Alaska because the climate and terrain of Alaska is almost identical to Russia. Alaska has some of the same animals such as Brown Bears and Siberian Tigers would have many animals to hunt such as Mountain Goat and Moose, Caribou, Roosevelt Elk, Dall Sheep, American Bison, Sitka Black-tailed Deer and other small game like Hares and many other animals that live in Alaska. Alaska has many national state parks such as Denali National park. Release Siberian Tigers in places like Denali National Park where there are thousands of square miles of wilderness to roam and hunt and there are no people. I hope to see one day thousands of Siberian Tigers back in the wild where they belong with no threat of becoming extinct. This would be good because loggers in Russia are taking forests away from the Siberian Tigers' habitat. We in the USA could better protect the Siberian Tigers if released into Alaska's Wild. I know that Siberian Tigers are not native to Alaska but neither is the American Bison, and it was released into Alaska with excellent results.
