The Siberian tiger, also known as the Amur, Manchurian or North China tiger is currently on the endangered species list with less than 500 left in the wild. There are more tigers owned as pets in the United States than there are left in the wild. That is a horribly sad fact.
There is only one tiger species, Panthera Tigris. There are three extinct subspecies, the Caspian, Javan, and Bali.
The current extant subspecies are the Bengal, Siberian, Sumatran, Indo Chinese, Malayan, and possibly South China. The South China subspecies has not been seen in the wild for years, but there are plans to introduce zoo born rewilded ones into their former haunts.
Latest numbers on the Siberian indicate an increase in their numbers to over 520, and an increase in India's Bengal tigers as well.
