History:
Like the Bengal tiger, the Siberian tiger is designated as endangered by the IUCN. Because their numbers are so limited, Siberian tigers have a remarkably low genetic diversity. Similarly, continued habit fragmentation has separated the population that lives in mountainous regions with those that live in woodland regions. While Siberian tigers currently have low global population numbers, there are thankfully a multitude of regulations and sanctuaries in place to help maintain and boost their numbers.
