Niche

A Siberian tiger is one of a special top predator which means they hunt anything that has meat and consists of no natural enemy such as things that will kill besides human. Another niche of their is to protect their cubs and teach them to hunt. throught this it will pass on their genes causing more variation. This is important since the Siberian tigers are extinct and need to be repopulated. It is located in the Amur valley of North eastern Russia, approximately 70 degree latitude. The role of this tiger is by sacrificing itself such as their bones asian folk medicine and fur for clothing and fashion industry. Its natural role is to kill any animal that is big enought to eat in order to maintain population
Its habitat is in the Amur valleys which is how Amur Tiger got its name. Its habitat is mainly a very unique forest in Russia. During the summer, the forest are dense and very moist but in the winter the forest are cold and covered in snow. The terrian is mainly rugged and very mountainous. It is a narrow niche because mostly everything in Earth is made up of meat thus making it hunt anything it wishes too.
