The Fragmentation of Siberian tiger habitat
As I know the Siberian Tiger Habitat has a major influence on the survival of the Siberian tiger. It was recently reported that that there are up 500 Siberian tigers but this population is behaving as if it was about 35 in terms of genetic diversity (src:news.bbc.co.uk). This is a serious situation as such a low effective population is vulnerable to extinction in the wild.
There is an exacerbating factor is that the habitat, as mentioned above, is divided by human activity and development that creates two ranges, one in the Sikhote-Alin Mountains, where by far the larger population is (effective population of about 26-28) and the other range being Southwest Primorye (Primorsky Krai) where the actual population size is about 20 but effective population size is 2.8 to 11. There is very little movement of Siberian tigers across the barrier.
