Amur Tiger: The Snow King of the Zoo
The Amur tiger, also known as the Siberian tiger, is a rare and magnificent predator. In the zoo, "Boris" is a true ambassador of his species, with his thick fur and piercing gaze. These tigers are adapted to the harsh cold, and their habitat in the zoo includes both shaded areas and a water feature where Boris can cool off on warmer days.
Enrichment activities for Boris include large ice blocks filled with meat or scent trails to stimulate his hunting instincts. Zookeepers also monitor his diet closely to ensure he gets enough protein while maintaining a healthy weight. Visitors are always amazed by his powerful roar, which echoes through the zoo.
