Siberian tiger - Approximately 700
The largest of all tigers, the Siberian (or Amur) tiger lives mainly in the coniferous forests of eastern Russia. Males weigh almost twice as much as females at about 650 pounds. Its orange coat is paler than other tigers' and its stripes are brown instead of black.
Poaching has drastically reduced their number to less than 700 and nearly half of them (490) are in captivity.
