How Conservationists Restored Tigers to Russia’s Wilderness

After more than five decades of absence, tigers are roaming the Pri-Amur region of Russia once again, thanks to the tireless efforts of conservationists. Between 2012 and 2021, these experts rehabilitated orphaned tiger cubs and successfully reintroduced them into the wild. Six cubs, rescued from various parts of the Sikhote-Alin Mountains, were raised in specially designed enclosures that minimized human contact and helped them develop critical survival skills like hunting.

Two of these tigers, Boris and Svetlana, became the heart of the story. Released over 100 miles apart, Boris made a remarkable journey to reunite with Svetlana, ultimately resulting in the birth of a litter of wild tiger cubs. This love story, combined with the careful reintroduction strategy, symbolizes the revival of Amur tigers in their historic range.

The study behind this success provides a global framework for reintroducing tigers and other large felids to their natural habitats. Dr. Luke Hunter of the WCS Big Cats Program praised the team’s meticulous approach, emphasizing the potential for replicating this success across Asia. This achievement not only restored a key species but also highlighted the power of international collaboration in conservation efforts.
