Amur Tiger: The Cold Wanderer in Wetlands

While the Amur tiger is typically associated with the snowy forests of Siberia, it occasionally explores wetlands near its range. These water-rich environments provide a seasonal abundance of prey, such as wild boars and deer.

Amur tigers are powerful swimmers and use rivers to navigate their vast territories. They rely on their stealth and strength to ambush prey, dragging their catch to secluded areas for feeding. Their presence in wetlands showcases their adaptability and highlights the importance of preserving interconnected ecosystems.

Unfortunately, climate change and human encroachment threaten both their forest and wetland habitats. Conservation programs are vital to protecting these tigers, ensuring they have access to the diverse environments they need to thrive.
