You won't believe how big this tiger reserve is planned to be!
Chinese authorities announced their decision to build a giant reserve for leopards and tigers in the north-east of the country. These measures are taken to save the two species of feline that are on the brink of extinction - the Amur leopard and the Amur tiger.
The park will be located in the territory of two provinces of Jilin and Heilongjiang and will become a part of the new system of national parks in China. Its area will be about 14.5 thousand square kilometers, which is 60% more than the Yellowstone National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A full-scale plan will be submitted in 2020.

This would be so wonderful...everyone should be doing as much as they can to save those animals that are close to extinction.

And it’s now 2021. Have they done this? What about poachers?

As a member of WWF for many years I am very pleased to learn about this effort and hope that it comes to fruition. I have also been involved with my local zoo for many years and we have an Amur tiger who is indeed a majestic creature. Our zoo participates in the Species Survival program for a number of animals.

Nina Kamwene, do you think they will also stop buying our rhino horn? Fat chance. I'll believe this when I see it.

I hope poachers will be executed. Make no mistake there will be poachers

I’m so glad someone is trying to save these beautiful animals, instead of allowing hunters to trophy kill. Very encouraging.

All very good and will they be culling to feed their thirst for animal parts which have been proven to have no medicinal value at all?
Dave Walser
Well done China considering you were the biggest country using tiger bones in your medicines
Hope you will be able to stop poaching
