| Population dynamics of the Amur tiger in Sikhote-Alin Zapovednik, Russia | |
| 1999 Book Chapter | |
Information on the distribution and status of Amur, or Siberian, tigers in Sikhote-Alin has been collected since creation of the protected area in 1935 (Matyushkin et al. 1981). Here we present estimates of the size and structure of that population based on a long-term monitoring programme that has been conducted in Sikhote-Alin State Biosphere Zapovednik since 1963. The purpose of this study was to use existing information to estimate observed population growth rate and reproductive parameters and to consider some of the implications for tiger conservation. |
