BEAR HUNTER: Why is the Amur tiger the most dangerous predator on the planet?
This tiger lives where no other tiger on the planet can survive. At -40°C. Under five feet of snow. In the taiga, where food is scarce, and a mistake costs lives.
It weighs up to 200 kg, moves silently through the snow, and hunts brown bears. Not because it's hungry, but because it specializes.
One tiger, tracked by scientists with a radio collar, fed on bears more often than ungulates. Simply because it knew how.
In 1940, there were fewer than 50 of them left on the entire planet. Today, there are 750. This is one of the most incredible recovery stories of a large predator in history. But the story isn't over yet.
