National Geographic Documentary - Full documentary 2017 - 800 pound Tige...
We are so fortunate to have so many extremely talented, and passionate photographers and naturalists working in India’s Tiger parks. Everyday we are enriched by their photographic images and crucial information about the Sumatran or Royal Bengal Tiger, that sometimes we forget about the even more critically endangered sub species, the largest tiger, the largest cat on earth for that matter; the Amur or Siberian Tiger. Their are only 350-400 left in the wild, and have been known to reach over 700lbs, (perhaps even over 800), living mostly in Russias Far East in extremely wild, frozen tundraAmur 's of the Russian Far East / Дикие Кошки Дальнего Востока or The Siberian Tiger carries a stature, and myth unto it’s own. Just think of this: For example the popular Bengal Tiger called Wagdoh (Scarface, Hulk) ,one of my personal favorite Tigers of India, a massive powerhouse of 500 plus pounds, one would almost add another "half of him" to reach an Amur Tigers size. That’s literally prehistoric. I was stunned all over again after re-watching the documentary below by it’s specific “Tiger beauty”. I will try to do better in the future to update with information on the Siberian here on SWT, unfortunately the numbers are too low, the conditions too harsh etc, and it’s an even more so, extremely shy, secretive tiger species...so I will have to just look harder for info to keep SWT updated; but I vow to try. In the meantime, this is a relatively new documentary (2017), I just watched it again for the third time, and it really is worth every minute. If you love Tigers as I know you all do, turn your eyes to the white icy snowfilled forest Tigers, it is a really splendid contrast to the jungles of India. A compliment that actually made my eyes that more appreciative of “our” Royal Bengal; in their hot humid world of flora and fauna. I would love to read your comments on our favorite animal, the Tiger, the one that is like a ghost in the snow. Please do watch and comment:
