The Amur tiger, also known as the Siberian tiger, is a majestic predator adapted to survive in the cold forests and mountainous regions of the Russian Far East. Though not a typical savannah animal, this tiger plays a role similar to its savannah cousins in maintaining balance within its ecosystem. Known for its thick fur and large paws, the Amur tiger can silently navigate snowy terrains, stalking its prey with unmatched precision.

Amur tigers primarily hunt deer, boars, and smaller mammals. Their role as apex predators ensures that herbivore populations do not grow uncontrollably, which helps preserve the forest's vegetation. These solitary creatures roam vast territories, marking their domain with scent trails. Conservation programs have helped stabilize Amur tiger populations by combating poaching and habitat loss, but they remain critically endangered.
