Siberian tiger


            
             The Siberian tiger is arguably one of the most beautiful and magnificent creatures in the world today. That beauty is one of the contributing factors to the near extinction of the tiger. These amazing cats are being killed off for the use of the bones, skins, organs, and claws. The Siberian tiger is the largest cat in the world so therefore it has the most black market value. .
             This orange and black striped amazing animal is the largest cat in the world today. Males can reach an astonishing weight of eight hundred pounds (Montgomery 59). That is three hundred more pounds an average male lion. Once full grown a Siberian tiger can measure ten feet in length. Another way to scale the size of these huge cats is by how much food is eaten in one sitting.
             The Siberian tiger is native to Siberia. It is a very cold and harsh land, covered with snow for most of the year. When the Weather changes and starts to get colder the tiger puts on about 2 inches of fat under its skin to protect itself from the harsh climate. The Siberian tiger has a very large hunting territory due to lack of prey. Only one in ten hunting trips is successful. The Siberian Tigers diet consists mainly of deer, wild boar, elk, lynx, bear and also smaller prey such as fish, rabbits and hares. He needs to east at least 20 lbs of meat a day to survive the cold climate of his environment. The tiger can eat up to 100 lbs of meat at one meal. The tiger is much like other wildcats and hunts at night. The cat stalks the prey, and when there is a chance of success at a meal, the cat pounces on the victims and delivers a bite to the neck and suffocates the prey. When the tiger has had a successful kill, it will drag the prey to hide it from other predators, will rest, and eat the deserved meal. If the beast is unable to eat all of his catch at one setting, it will cover it and take a nap. The meal is then finished upon awakening.
