This tiger habitat area is poorly connected with the primary habitat of the Sikhote-Alin Mountains. There are 24,700 acres (10,000 hectares) of critical tiger habitat along the border of China, additional areas that need trees near our planting sites at Ussuriysky and Lazovsky, as well as areas that have been intensively logged or burned and require reforestation near the Sikhote-Alin tiger reserve. Some of those trees will reforest a site at Sikhote-Alin Reserve in the Far East that suffers from yearly wildfires. |
