Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) energetic requirements: Implications for conserving wild tigers

Biological Conservation, 2014
Abstract The Global Tiger Recovery Program has identified increasing prey populations as a crucial component of recovering wild tiger numbers because prey density is a key determinant of tiger density, especially for Amur tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) living at the northern limit of tiger distribution, where both tiger and prey densities are the ...

Amur tiger stripes: individual identification based on deep convolutional neural network

Integrative Zoology, 2020
AbstractThe automatic individual identification of Amur tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) is important for population monitoring and making effective conservation strategies. Most existing research primarily relies on manual identification, which does not scale well to large datasets.

Amur tiger conservation education program: A pilot study on program effectiveness

Integrative Zoology, 2015
AbstractAnthropogenic impacts are the primary threats to Amur tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) and their habitat. Villagers living in proximity to tigers tend to view them negatively and, often, as a source of revenue on black markets. We aim to reduce human–tiger conflict by working with young students of Ternei County in the heart of tiger habitat in

Inbreeding status and implications for Amur tigers

Animal Conservation, 2021
AbstractInbreeding more likely occurs in small, isolated and endangered populations, and may influence the sustainable survival of a population. As the Amur tiger Panthera tigris altaica population in China experienced a severe decline in the 1990s, the recovering population may be prone to inbreeding and its potential impacts on population health ...

YOLO-mini-tiger: Amur Tiger Detection

Proceedings of the 2020 International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval, 2020
In this paper, we present our solution for tiger detection in the 2019 Computer Vision for Wildlife Conservation Challenge (CVWC2019). We introduce an efficient deep tiger detector, which consists of the convnet channel adaptation method and an improved tiger detection method based on You Only Look Once version 3 (YOLOv3).

Sertoli Cell Tumour in an Amur Tiger

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2001
The histological and immunohistochemical characteristics of a malignant Sertoli cell tumour in a 17-year-old Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) are described. Histological examination of the primary lesion in the right testis and metastatic lesions throughout the internal organs showed a variable cellular pattern with an admixture of tubular ...

Geoecological problems of the Amur tiger saving

Geology and Environment, 2021
Activities of the government and society have an impact on the population of the Amur tiger. Related processes of recession, stabilization and growth of the number of animal species are analyzed. The main attention is focused on the legal basis and promotion of preservation and protection of the Amur tiger.
