Caspian tiger (up), Bengal tiger (left), Sumatran tiger (right), Siberian tiger (down)

The Siberian Tiger Introduction Project involves reestablishing populations of the Siberian tiger, also known as the Amur tiger, in their former range and also expanding their range by introducing them as replacements of their genetically similar relative, the extinct Caspian tiger, which inhabited Central and Western Asia.[1] Currently, the Siberian tiger inhabits the cold mountains of the Russian Far East and northern China.
