Just to add to the video, Siberian tigers were the largest tiger subspecies by size up until the first half of the 20th century, but due to hunting pressure, the individuals with the genes for large body size, essentially dissappeared, the largest recorded wild tigers after the 1970s were a couple of male bengal tigers weighing 270kg, the largest recorded siberian tiger post 1970 was a male that weighed 212kg

@@jmca_power That's interesting! Thanks for the info! Is there somewhere I could read about it?

[@jmca_power]

@@Eco-Nerd That depends, do you speak russian? There is a paper by Slaght et al. 2005 that talked about this, but the original is in russian and I can´t find an english version, the complete reference is as follows: Slaght, J. C.; Miquelle, D. G.; Nikolaev, I. G.; Goodrich, J. M.; Smirnov, E. N.; Traylor-Holzer, K.; Christie, S.; Arjanova, T.; Smith, J. L. D.; Karanth, K. U. (2005). "Chapter 6. Who's king of the beasts? Historical and contemporary data on the body weight of wild and captive Amur tigers in comparison with other subspecies" (PDF). In D. G. Miquelle; E. N. Smirnov; J.M. Goodrich (eds.). Tigers in Sikhote-Alin Zapovednik: Ecology and Conservation (in Russian). Vladivostok, Russia: PSP. pp. 25-35
