It was the first time that a wild female Siberian tiger was recorded in a video in the forest area, which is located in the Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park.

The footage shows the female Siberian tiger lying on the ground under a tree, and two tiger cubs frolicking around the adult Siberian tiger.

China has enhanced efforts to protect wild Siberian tigers and Amur leopards in recent years, leading to rising populations of the two animals. There are 110 wild Siberian tigers and Amur leopards in the Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park.
