The Far East is the most remote region of Russia, which has a rather harsh climate. The Ussuri taiga is a unique natural heritage; more than 400 species of trees grow on its territory (among them the Korean oak). Many endemic, that is, not found anywhere else in the world, representatives of the fauna also live here. Animals of the Russian Far East are interesting and unique, many of their species are listed in the Red Book.
Amur leopard
The Amur (Far Eastern) leopard is recognized as the rarest wild cat in the world. The species, which is on the verge of extinction, is unusually beautiful. Now about 30 individuals of the Amur leopard live in freedom, and in zoos - about a hundred (and all from one male). On the territory of Korea, these wonderful leopards are completely exterminated, in China they are found in isolated cases. Most likely, these are individuals coming from Russian territory. Many animals of the Far East are on the verge of extinction, like the Amur leopard. They are not a threatonly poachers, but also forest fires, reducing the amount of food.
Ussuri tiger
The Ussuri (Amur) tiger is the largest cat in the world. The male in the prime of life has a weight of up to 300 kg. This is a strong and powerful beast. The weight of the tiger does not prevent him from being an excellent hunter and moving through the reeds without making the slightest rustle. He hunts for moose, wild boars, deer, hares, he can even attack a medium-sized bear.
Animals of the Far East tremble at night, hearing its menacing and mighty roar. The female tiger gives birth to two or three cubs, which stay with her for up to three years, learning the basics of the art of hunting. At the same time, tiger cubs feed on mother's milk only up to six months.
Animals of the Far East: Himalayan bear
This predator is much smaller than its close relative, the brown bear. That is why the first tries not to meet on narrow paths with the second. But the Himalayan bear is very beautiful, its black coat glistens and shimmers in the sun, and its chest is decorated with a white spot. Like many animals of the Far East, the bear loves to feast on acorns, nuts and roots. Having worked up an impressive fat reserve over the summer, the animal goes into hibernation in a cozy large hollow of cedar, pine or oak. Hibernation continues for five months. In February, a she-bear gives birth to cubs that stay with her until next autumn.
The nature of the Far East is beautiful and unique. Every effort must be made to preserve it.for our descendants!
