A body of a young tiger was found near the village Yuzhny in Khabarovsk Krai's Lazo district on February 18. The predator most likely died from a clash with a larger male tiger. The carcass was sent to the Amur Tiger Center for post-mortem.

External examination carried out by Khabarovsk Krai Hunting Control Service inspectors showed numerous lacerated wounds. Pawprints and a blood trail of the tiger revealed a rough picture of what had happened in the forest.

The young tiger clashed with a larger male, front pugmark size 12.5 cm. The winner left the scene and the loser, having received numerous wounds, remained on the battlefield. A few days later he came out on the road and died.

The body of the young tiger will be taken to the Amur Tiger Center for forensic examination. Experts will have to establish the exact cause of death.

The younger tiger probably initiated the fight trying to drive the older male out of his territory but ended up killed.
