The tiger cub at Nordens Ark is already six weeks old and a curious little fellow. He's starting to exploring the world outside the den - not something his mother is happy about. She carries him back to safety again and again and again...
Fully grown an amur tiger can be just over three metres long and weighing some 300 kg, that makes it the world’s largest cat. This little guy has some growing up to do. :-)
At one time the Amur tiger lived in large areas of eastern China, Manchuria and parts of Siberia – hence its former and more familiar name: Siberian tiger.
The world tiger population continues to decline, and everywhere the threats they face are the same: poaching, trade in tiger parts for traditional Asian medicine, modern forestry and scarcity of prey.
