There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I also don't think that Amur tigers are addicted bear hunters and lets not forget that brown bear is by far the largest carnivorous animal in the forest. Two species co-exist wonderfully in Ussuri forests thousands of years and both thrive there. Probably the reasons that sometimes looks like tigers hunt too much bears is that statistics includes a killed bear cubs also on category "bear", so its not always possible to distinguish among adult bear and bear cub in the statistics.
I'm curious to see any new photos or videos of carcasses or residuals of adult or subadult brown bear (any sex) killed by tigers from last 1-2 decades.
