Does anyone knows English version of this book? Is there any English version? I only can find german version in amazon and other websites.

In my pm, I adviced to buy the English translation of V. Mazak's great book 'Der Tiger'. I did a check and concluded it never was translated. My bad and apologies, Greatearth.

The good news is that the German edition is still around. Use the internet to buy it as fast as you can. It's about $ 10,00, not including shipment. I know the book is sold in the US. When you got it, find someone able in German. Follow a course. It will pay dividends, as there are quite a few good books about big cats in German. In the past, German naturalists and hunters often visited the former Sovjet-Union. I know that books about their adventures in the Russian Far East have been published. Most were never translated. If you finished the course, I'll post a list of good books.

Another book you should have is 'Die Säugetiere der Sovjet-Union' (A.A. Sludskij and V.G. Heptner, 1972). The German edition was published in 1980. I know there is a English translation. It's more expensive, but it's a great book that has a lot of information on both Amur and Caspian tigers. Reply
