Yes, they died out in the late 1950's. The Russian Army played a major role in their extinction when the government wanted to reclaim large expanses of wilderness near the Caspian Sea. The Tigers were eradicated and farmers moved in to clear the land and grow crops, leaving nothing for what few tigers survived the Army. For more details, please see the sites listed below.
The Caspian tiger, a subspecies of tiger that lived in Central Asia, was a carnivore. Like other tigers, it primarily hunted and fed on large prey such as deer and wild boar. Unfortunately, the Caspian tiger is now extinct, primarily due to habitat loss and hunting.
The Caspian lion became extinct mainly due to hunting by humans, habitat loss, and human encroachment into their natural habitat. Loss of prey species also contributed to their decline, leading to their eventual extinction. Conservation efforts were not implemented in time to save the population.
