AN Amur tiger has attacked and killed a man in Primorye Territory in Russia’s Far East area, local media reported on Tuesday.
The incident happened near the village of Zimniki in the Dalnerechensky District, about 480 km northeast of the city of Vladivostok.
Philipp Shutov, Primorye’s deputy minister of forestry, environmental protection, wildlife and natural resources, was reported as saying by Russia’s TASS news agency.
“Police officers and hunting supervision specialists are currently working at the site,’’ Shutov said in a video statement.
The Amur tiger, with a population of about 750, is listed as Endangered in the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species. (Xinhua/NAN)
