"Tiger numbers in Russia are stable, according to the results of the latest full range survey to count the animals.

While stressing that results are preliminary, tiger conservationists around the world say the news is a welcome relief, espeically as tiger numbers have decreased in other parts of Asia.

To determine numbers of tigers in this remote, densely forested land, researchers sent out nearly one thousand fieldworkers to survey the entire region where tigers are believed to live. Some of them spent months in the field and covered over 21,000 km of transects by foot, ski, snowmobile, and car.

Sponsors of the 2005 Winter Survey of Amur Tigers include: the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources; the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation’s Save-the-Tiger Fund [http://www.savethetigerfund.org]; 21st Century Tiger [http://www.21stcenturytiger.org]; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Rhinoceros Tiger Conservation Fund; Wildlife Conservation Society; and WWF [http://www.wwf.org]"
