Description
An Amur Tiger on a golden brown textured background.
This image is available with a transparent background for fabrics. Visit my T-Shirt and other fabrics gallery for a preview.
The Amur tiger is the largest of all the cats. A male Amur tiger can weigh up to 300kgs.
There are now more of these wonderful tigers in captivity than there are in the wild due to poaching, mainly to satisfy the demand for oriental medicinal products.
Although tigers have always been hunted the population was never threatened with extinction until recently. With the advent of western values and weapons, much of the culture of the local people was destroyed, and with it the protection of the tiger was lost.

Outstanding capture of this beauty! Great contrast, danger, power, hidden energy and self-control are all present in this work!

majestic and menacing at the same time; cool framing allowing one to imagine the tiger has many possibilities
