The number of tigers living in the northeastern wilderness of China has increased. According to researchers, 55 of the big cats are home there. That amounts to a „dramatic recovery,“ according to a recent study by Chinese scientists. The Amur tiger, known colloquially as the Siberian tiger, has benefited from increased anti-poaching efforts, the removal of thousands of snares, and improved protection of its habitat, according to the report. The Siberian tiger is found throughout eastern Russia and adjacent areas of North Korea and China.
