The Siberian TigerEndangered Species
Siberian Tiger - Facts • Average weight of 222.3 kg (490 lb) for
males, and 117.9 kg (260 lb) for females
• Litter size is normally two or four cubs but there can be as many as six
• An adult Siberian tiger will happily gulp down 50 kilograms of meat in a day (9 kg necessary to survive)
Why are they endangered?• The main reason is that humans
(over-)hunt them for their valuable furs
• Siberian tigers require vast forest landscapes to survive; so logging fragments their habitat and separates the tigers from one another
Conservation Efforts
• Humans protect the Siberian Tigers by disallowing tiger hunting
• Logging can be disallowed for the regions that the tigers occupy
Why should we save them?
• We humans caused their endangerment, which deems us responsible to remove them from this status
• If the tigers become extinct, the species under them in the food chain will no longer be controlled
In Conclusion...
• By harming the tigers we harm ourselves, and this applies to all other species
• We have to care for the world and environment around us for it to care for us
