the siberian tiger ( panthera tigris altaica ) , also called amur tiger , is a tiger subspecies inhabiting mainly the sikhote alin mountain region with a small population in southwest primorye province in the russian far east .

the siberian tiger once ranged throughout all of korea , north-eastern china , russian far east , and eastern mongolia .

in 2005 , there were 331 – 393 adult and subadult siberian tigers in this region , with a breeding adult population of about 250 individuals .

the population had been stable for more than a decade due to intensive conservation efforts , but partial surveys conducted after 2005 indicate that the russian tiger population was declining .

an initial census held in 2015 indicated that the siberian tiger population had increased to 480 – 540 individuals in the russian far east , including 100 cubs .

this was followed up by a more detailed census which revealed there was a total population of 562 wild siberian tigers in russia .

this tiger subspecies was also called korean tiger , manchurian tiger , and ussurian tiger , depending on the region where individuals were observed .

the siberian tiger and bengal tiger subspecies rank among the biggest living cats .

a comparison of data on body weights of siberian tigers indicates that up to the first half of the 20th century both males and females were on average heavier than post-1970 ones .

today 's wild siberian tigers are smaller than bengal tigers .

their reduced weight as compared to historical siberian tigers may be due to a combination of causes : when captured , they were usually sick or injured and involved in a conflict situation with people .

in terms of average adult weights , a male siberian tiger rivals a male asiatic lion ( 175 kg ( 386 lb ) ) .

results of a phylogeographic study comparing mitochondrial dna from caspian tigers and living tiger subspecies indicate that the common ancestor of the amur and caspian tigers colonized central asia from eastern china , via the gansu − silk road corridor , and then subsequently traversed siberia eastward to establish the amur tiger population in the russian far east .

together , the tigers of the far east , central asia and caucasus formed the northernmost group of tigers in mainland asia .

siberian tigers are considered to be polygamous . reproduction periods and birth giving are not confined to certain season . nevertheless , the siberian tigers usually produce offspring in april – june .
the siberian tiger is solitary and nocturnal . it is among those territorial animals that can be aggressive while meeting an intruder trespassing their territory marked by scent traces . despite its unfavorable reputation , the siberian tiger doesn’t attack people , it avoids them , unless it’s very hungry or sick and can’t hunt its usual prey . the bengal tiger ( panthera tigris tigris ) is more dangerous , although the siberian tiger is larger .
the siberian tiger ( panthera tigris altaica ) is found mainly in russian territory , in the east of siberia and north china .
the siberian tiger or amur tiger is the largest subspecies and the largest cat in the world . however , this has only happened with specimens in captivity as in the wild the bengal tiger is bigger .

the tragic incident began when a young woman got out of a car inside the siberian tiger enclosure to berate her partner in the driver ' s seat .
human impacts have since caused the extinction of three subspecies , the javan tiger , bali tiger and caspian tiger , and world tiger numbers could now have fallen to fewer than 3000 .
this is the most common subspecies of tiger and is almost as large as the siberian tiger . fewer than 2 , 500 bengal tigers remain in their native habitat of india , nepal , and pakistan .
as people continue to encroach on the tiger ' s original range , the siberian tiger finds more people and less prey . these tigers eat wild boar , sika deer and elk . as the forest is turned into farmland or urban centers , the tiger no longer has enough food to support itself . combined with poaching of its prey species , the siberian tiger may not have enough prey to subsist on .

habitat the siberian tiger favours forested areas and secluded mountain ranges . in its natural habitat in the russian far east , the siberian tiger enjoys a variety of different forests , from korean pine broadleaf forests to east asian coniferous areas and a vast variety in - between . this habitat is important as it is home to the ideal types of prey required by the siberian tiger to survive . in addition to the russian far east , a small number of this subspecies can also be found in china and north korea . snow - laden areas are not suitable for the siberian tiger as their natural prey cannot survive under these conditions , meaning that there is no food for the wild cats either .
other researchers have observed bears following tiger tracks to scavenge tiger kills and to potentially prey on tigers .

if you have ever fantasized about a tiger purring away on your lap on a cold winter’s evening , this figure will be sobering as you ponder the consequence of being squashed . as the largest of the tigers , the average weight for an adult siberian tiger is approximately 660 pounds . a male siberian tiger can weigh in as high as 423 kilograms , or 933 pounds . females , although considerably lighter , can tip the scales at 168 kilograms , or 370 pounds . that is a massive jump from the 1 . 7 to 3 . 5 - pound weight of a newborn siberian tiger cub .
the siberian tiger may be doomed because of its lack of genetic diversity . while these tigers have made a great comeback , the huge decrease in the 1940s means that these tigers have a very limited gene pool . the cats may be inbreeding , thus causing serious health problems that may doom the subspecies . the siberian tiger is very close genetically to already extinct tigers .
males of the largest subspecies , the amur ( siberian ) tiger , may weigh up to 660 pounds . for males of the smallest subspecies—the sumatran tiger—upper range is at around 310 pounds . within each subspecies , males are heavier than females .
siberian tigers are considered endangered by iucn’s red list . one cause of their dwindling population is loss of habitat due to deforestation . in addition , siberian tigers are poached , or illegally hunted , for their fur and for body parts that are used for traditional medicines .
artificially - bred ' next generation ' siberian tigers will breed in the wild , said the park ' s chief engineer liu dan .
they were about 3 kilometers from their village , talking about how they were going to enjoy the game , when a wild siberian tiger appeared behind them , just a few dozen meters away .
the siberian tiger’s ability to devour almost 100 pounds of meat at one sitting and hold their food helps them derive energy even when winter season lasts for months , and they can survive normally .
the siberian tiger has a tremendous physical strength and greatly developed sense organs . tigers spent a lot of time hunting . their main prey – hoofed animals . to catch prey tiger creeps upon it , humps the back , sets his rear legs against the ground and attacks . only one of ten attempts succeeds . if the attempt fails tiger prefers not to follow the prey but to search for a new one . when there’s not enough prey in forests the siberian tiger can attack cattle and dogs .
many people believe that lions weigh more than tigers . but this myth is actually wrong . because tigers are the ones which weigh more than lions . . very surprisingly , the male tiger out - weighs the male lion with a factor of nearly 100 pounds . these statistics are specifically true for the siberian tigers . siberian amur tiger weighs nearly 100 pounds more than a male african lion .
heilongjiang has bred more than 1 , 000 siberian tigers since its establishment in 1986 , when it had just eight of the large cats .
the amur tiger ( panthera tigris ssp . altaica ) , also known as the siberian tiger , is among the world’s rarest and most endangered cat species . the largest and northernmost tiger , it is believed only around 450 of these magnificent , 200kg , three - metre - long cats remain in the wild .
since the start of the 20th century , when world tiger populations were thought to be above 100 , 000 , three tiger sub - species have gone extinct : the caspian tiger ( which was so closely related to the amur tiger than some scientists believe them to be one and the same ) , the bali tiger , and the javan tiger .
siberian tiger is a subspecies of tiger known by the scientific name panthera tigris altaica . it is also commonly known as the amur tiger and is the largest tiger of all . their fur possesses the ability to change shades to help with camouflage . because of the high poaching rate of these tigers , they nearly went extinct in the 1940s with only about 40 of them left , but thanks to wwf ( world wide fund for nature ) and other conservation groups , the number of siberian tigers is kept around 400 .
the views expressed in the comments above are those of our readers . ' siberian times ' reserves the right to pre - moderate some comments .
sexual maturity occurs for females after three to four years and for males , it occurs after 4 to 5 years . half of the siberian tiger cubs can not survive more than two years of age .
the largest of all cats in the world is the siberian tiger or amur tiger . they are well known for their elegant walk and their purring sound . they are often found in books , movies , and various types of folklore . this is a type of tiger that many people are familiar with the appearance of .
) reserve that has been a stronghold for the amur tiger since its creation in 1935 , and which harbors over 30 tigers today . in 1992 wcs ( initially as the hornocker wildlife institute ) in cooperation with the sikhote - alin reserve began intensive studies of tiger ecology under the siberian tiger project , today the world’s longest running radio - telemetry based tiger research and conservation effort .
the siberian tiger , a subspecies of tiger , is the largest cat in the world . it averages about 3 . 3 m ( 11 ft . ) in length , with a tail measuring 1 m ( 3 ft . ) . adult male siberian tigers can weigh up to 320 kg ( 700 lb . ) , while females are significantly smaller , weighing up to 180 kg ( 400 lb . ) .
in short , you can say about the bengal tiger that it has a nasty character . it feels an overwhelming need of confrontation , and it has been observed many times , as a tiger caused fights with lions or siberian ( amur ) tigers in in zoos .

jilin has banned commercial logging in key state - owned forest farms since april 1 this year , which improves the living environment for the siberian tigers .
however , siberian tigers have been frequently seen around china - russia border areas in recent years , due to joint protection efforts made by both countries .
with the decrease in the population of the siberian tiger , the population of the gray wolf increases . it has been proved by the stories of local inhabitants who claim that wolves haven’t been seen in sikhote alin before ; everything changed in 1930s , when the siberian tiger started being hunted , and its habitats were occupied by the colonization of those regions at the end of 19 th and the beginning of 20 th centuries .
one average siberian tigers kill about one person a year . many of them are trappers who approached to close to the tigers . unprovoked attacks by man - eaters occur about once every four years . provoked attacks are much more common . many of the victims are unsuccessful tiger poachers . dogs and livestock are frequently taken by siberian tigers . this occurs often enough that the government compensates people who lose animal to tiger attacks .
this month marks the one year anniversary of the biggest siberian tiger release in history . four of the five amur ( aka siberian ) tigers released last year in the russian far east have adapted successfully to life in the wild . newly released video captured by a camera trap positioned at the khingan nature reserve shows a healthy tigress , ilona , marking her territory .
historically , the average adult weight was 474 pounds for males and 300 pounds for females . in short , a siberian tiger can weigh up to 660 pounds , but one specimen raised in captivity reached 1025 lbs .
russia outlawed killing the siberian tiger in 1947 , but it hasn ' t stopped poachers . siberian tigers live in such remote locations that poachers can kill them without being caught . poachers hunt these tigers for the illegal wildlife market selling skins , meat and bones . they are also hunted for traditional asian medicines . local people often view tigers as threats to people and livestock and may kill a rare tiger if they see one .
breeding and living in the wild is key for the tigers to go back to the mountains , so restoring the species numbers and assisting in their survival . picture from heilongjiang siberian tiger park , china , by urltoken
an image of a gold siberian tiger is on the coat of arms and flag of primorsky krai – it is the symbol of prosperity , and draws attention to enormous variety of plants and animals of this region .
siberian tigers are found in the russian far east , korean pine , mongolian oak and near the russian border of northeast china . the siberian tigers have the most unregimented population out of all the tigers . most of the siberian tigers that roam free in the primorsky and khabarovsky krai , located in far east russia . a couple can be found on the northeast china border . they usually live in woodlands , boreal and temperate mixed areas , or the mountains . the siberian tiger distribution area was a lot larger before they became endangered . therefore , today most of the siberian tigers are held in reservations or zoos . [ 6 ] like all tigers , the siberian tiger is very territorial . male cubs leave their mother anywhere from 16 to 22 months , whereas , the daughter may remain with her mother . sometimes it takes a one hundred kilometer journey for a tiger to find an uninhabited land to claim . a siberian tiger’s territory does not stay stable for long despite the fact that they do not migrate . it may gain territory when its neighbor dies or lose territory if it losing a fight against an invader . [ 7 ] tigers need a territory large enough to provide for their nutrition needs . they siberian tigers main prey is elk , wild boar , and sika deer . their diet also consists of smaller animals like badgers and raccoons . during the summer time , they might even feed on black and brown bears . when the times are too difficult to find their usual prey , the siberian tiger may feed upon domestic animals like dogs , cows , horses , etc . when hunting the tigers’ size , strength , and claws help them with their defense . they are extremely silent when hunting and prefer to do it alone . like all tigers , the siberian tiger will take extreme measures , such as fighting to the death , to protect their habitat , territory and young . [ 8 ]
the largest of the tiger subspecies , males can be as long as a station wagon ! these tigers also have the palest orange coat and the fewest stripes , to help it blend in with its snow - covered habitat . as it lives in a very cold climate , the siberian tiger’s coat grows longer and thicker than other tiger subspecies , and it develops a layer of fat for insulation . there are less than 400 siberian tigers left in their home range of eastern russia and northeastern china .
the gestation period in siberian tigers is 3 - 3 . 5 months . female tigers give birth once every two years at any point during the year .
history records that , during the russian civil war , both the red army and the white army based in vladivostok almost wiped out the local siberian tigers .
tiger cubs growth rate specifically depends upon their weights . at the time of their birth tiger cubs are around 1 . 8 pounds . after 120 days tiger cubs are around 35 pounds . after 60 days tiger cubs are around 9 . 5 pounds .
unfortunately , the siberian tiger has faced difficult times , full of threats derived mainly from human activities . the international union for conservation of nature ( iucn ) has classified the siberian tiger as endangered , but in the 1990s it was critically endangered . one of its worst times was in the early twentieth century since in the 1930’s the population fell to about 20 - 30 individuals . a 2005 census estimated a small population of 360 specimens .
the siberian tiger can down an asian black bear ( ursus thibetanus ) and a brown bear ( ursus arctos ) , if the population of ungulates decreases . however , in such a situation , it more often attacks brown bears near their winter habitats . the siberian tiger is more willing to hunt the bears because they cannot climb trees , contrary to asian black bears , and they prefer more open spaces where they are easier to hunt .
the siberian tiger was once found all over far east russia , the korean peninsula , and northern china . however , many people hunted these animals not only for the meat , but also their fur for clothing , medicine , and home décor . this drove these tigers almost to extinction . by the 1940s only about 40 siberian tigers were left in the wild . the first country to pass a law that gave these tigers full protection was russia . since a majority of the siberian tigers lived ( and still live ) in russia , by the 1980s there were around 500 of them . when the soviet union fell , the poaching of these tigers grew , but the russian conservation efforts , along with the wwf , have attempted to stabilize the population , keeping the number now around 450 . the siberian tigers’ habitat is limited to the primorski and khabarovski provinces of far east russian and tiny areas of the chinese border . [ 9 ] the biggest threat to siberian tigers is deforestation . a couple other main threats are the excessive hunting of the tiger’s main prey , killing the animal for it body parts to be used in traditional medicines , and habitat loss , which results from fires , logging and development of cities . the wwf along with the russian animal conservation and scientist have been working on several ways to protect the siberian tigers and help the subspecies prosper . they have secured the siberian tigers’ habitats . these include protected areas and conservation leases . they have also found millions of acres that can sustainable manage the tigers . siberian tigers are also being placed into zoos and preserves where they can be watch , protected , and their reproduction can be managed . people are also working with hunting communities to protect the animals like deer , elk , and boar that the siberian tiger hunts . the wwf is trying to create better logging and hunting laws that will be reinforced to protect the tigers’ habitats . they also advocate the importance of saving the siberian tiger to people . they help host an annual “tiger day” in vladivostok and other cities in the primorskii provinces , where the siberian tiger population is high . [ 10 ]
siberian tigers are distinguishable by their striped fur . similar to people’s unique fingerprints , no two tigers have the same striped pattern . siberian tigers differ from other tigers because they have fewer , paler stripes , and they also have manes . the mane , in addition to their thick fur , helps keep them warm .
bengal tigers are second only to the siberian tiger in size . in fact , some bengal tigers from the indian state of assam are as large as siberian tigers . there is wide variation in their striping patterns . a specific feature of bengal tigers is their black ear . the large tiger weights around 160 - 260 kg . its ranges are in small protected areas in india , nepal , bhutan , bangladesh , and western forest of myanmar .
they ( the attacks ) were an avoidable tragedy ,
says wu zhigang , a researcher with the jilin provincial institute of forestry science and one of the foremost scholars in siberian tiger protection .
both the tiger and the farmers would have been safe if not for the snares .
size : length of the siberian tiger body , without tail – 160 - 200 cm , length of tail about 100 cm . weight of an adult animal can reach 300 kg . the largest weight recorded – 384 kg .
siberian tigers were once found throughout the russian far east , northern china and the korean peninsula . by the 1940s hunting had driven the tiger to the brink of extinction , with no more than 40 remaining in the wild .

tigers are special animals . they rule in asia . siberian tigers have really shown us any animal can survive and adapt in any climate .
environmental officials from china and russia have decided to work together to improve the protection of siberian tigers and amur leopards in order to save the two endangered species .
only 300 are believed to be living in the wild , with 20 in northeast china . siberian tigers are one of the world ' s rarest animal species .
the siberian tiger feeds on several animal species . an individual typically consumes musk deer , manchuria wapitis , gorals , moose , wild boars , siberian roe deer , sika deer , hares , rabbits , pikas and even salmon , and other species of ungulate animals . according to a study carried out in the 1990s , its distribution seems to be related to the distribution of its favorite prey .
we can save wild tigers . in 2010 , the 13 tiger range countries committed to tx2—to double wild tiger numbers by 2022 , the next year of the tiger . wwf is driving tx2 forward .
the siberian tiger is the largest of all of the wild cats in the world . also known as the amur tiger or by its scientific name , panthera tigris altaica , this magnificent animal is naturally found predominantly in the sikhote - alin mountain range in the far east of russia . of course , there are also siberian tigers in zoos , parks and conservation areas around the world . today , there are only about 400 siberians to be found in the wild .
the siberian tigers once wandered in tianqiaoling area but became extinct in the mid 1980s ,
said wu zhigang , a researcher with the provincial academy of forestry .
wwf’s conservation efforts to entice siberian tigers back to china over the last six to seven years have largely focused on bringing back the deer that the tigers prey on .

in the past , the siberian tiger was also considered to be shy and non - threatening towards people , unless it was provoked , although there were incidents when a tiger killed a woman collecting wood , and a defenseless officer when he was crossing a reed bed . we need to add the latest case , when an amur tiger killed a zoo keeper in germany .
in 1996 , the global survival network ( gsn ) was part of a multilateral effort to increase protection of the endangered siberian , or amur , tiger . the program , named the phoenix fund , was co - developed by the post

the siberian tiger , although it is more peaceful and doesn’t cause such encounters , always wins them . its size , weight , and range of arms are decisive factors . it is the largest cat and it is unrivalled among felids .
ligers are the biggest cats on earth ; they weigh 900 to 1200 pounds . siberian tigers are the second biggest cats with a weight of around 600 pounds and lions are the third biggest cats with a weight of around 500 pounds . bengal tigers and sumatran tigers also weigh more than lions even though they are smaller than siberian tigers .
there are currently an estimated 500 siberian tigers in the wild , of which only 20 or so can be found live in northeast china ' s jilin and heilongjiang provinces .
according to wwf , there are about 540 wild tigers around the world . from 2012 to 2014 at least 27 wild siberian tigers were spotted in north - east china .
fur : unlike the royal bengal tigers , the siberian tigers have dense fur and also manes , which help them stay warm in the cold snowy weather . their stripes are fewer and paler , which make them differentiable from other tiger species .
the weight of a male siberian tiger , normally about 550lb , increases by about 10 per cent in winter , mr liu said , adding that food intake for the big cats increases by about 30 per cent to 13 - 18lb daily .
the goal of the siberian tiger project is to collect the best possible scientific information on tiger ecology for use in conservation plans . through radio - tracking of more than 60 tigers since 1992 , wcs specialists have studied their social structure , land use patterns , food habits , reproduction , mortality , and relationship with other species , including humans . as a result we have consistently made sound conservation recommendations based upon comprehensive knowledge of tiger ecology and the role of tigers in the forested ecosystems of the russian far east . the siberian tiger project positions wcs as scientific leaders in russia , and gives us the credibility to engage policy - makers as scientists with a real understanding of tiger conservation needs .
first ever liger cub was born in novosibirsk zoo of russia during 2004 . in fact there were twin liger cubs in russia named as zita and gita . liger zita and gita was the product of male african lion and female siberian tigress . russia is the largest country in the world and has the largest amount of siberian tigers in the wild .
three local politicians in china raised at least 11 endangered siberian tigers , state media reported thursday after one of the animals jumped to its death from a high - rise building .

in 1947 the government issued a blanket prohibition on tiger hunting in russia . moreover , catching tiger cubs was first restricted and later completely prohibited .
by 2022 , the next year of the tiger , both wild amur tiger and its habitat in china will be double according to wwf’s tx2 .
rasputin , a siberian tiger , managed to sneak back into his outdoor area without the 56 - year - old keeper noticing . he sprung on him from behind and bit through his neck . the zookeeper died instantly , the westdeutsche allgemeine zeitung reported .
investigators said that the most likely reason behind his death was basic human error . a similar attack happened in the nearby city of cologne two years ago . a keeper was attacked by a siberian tiger after forgetting to shut the door and was killed .
the siberian tiger has thick fur that is white and orange with black stripes . its paws have sharp claws for tearing their food and immobilising its prey . they have powerful bodies built for taking down large animals and things a lot heavier than them .

tiger ( panthera tigris linnaeus , 1758 ) is a characteristic species of asia , which is in severe danger . siberian tiger ( panthera tigris altaica ) is the largest one of the five existent tiger subspecies . it is extremely endangered . one new way for tiger protection and rescue is to study interspecies cloning . but there is few research data about siberian tiger . in this study , we cultured siberian tiger fibroblasts in vitro , analyzed their biological characteristics , chromosomes , and cell cycles , to provide not only nuclear donors with good morphology , normal biological characteristics , and chromosome quantity for tiger interspecies cloning , but also reliable data for further studying siberian tiger . the results indicated that siberian tiger ear fibroblasts can be successfully obtained by tissue culture either with or without overnight cold digestion , the cultured cells were typical fibroblasts with normal morphology , growth curve , and chromosome quantity ; g0 / g1 percentage increased and s percentage decreased with the confluence of cells . g0 / g1 and s stage rate was significantly different between 40–50 % and 80–90 % , 95–100 % confluence ; there is no distinct difference between 80–90 % and 95–100 % confluence . the cells at the same density ( 80–90 % confluence ) were treated with or without 0 . 5 % serum starving , go / g1 rate of the former was higher than the latter , but the difference was not significant . go / g1 proportion of 95–100 % confluence was slightly higher than serum starving ( 80–90 % confluence ) , but no significant difference . therefore , the siberian tiger fibroblasts we cultured in vitro can be used as donor cells , and the donor cells do not need to be treated with normal serum starvation during nuclear transfer ; if we will just consider the rate of the g0 / g1 stage cells , serum starvation can be replaced by confluence inhibition when cultured cells were more than 80–90 % confluence .
the habitat of the siberian tigers is mostly the snow - covered hilly regions , where they actually belong . like all other tigers , these tigers prefer to live in the forest areas .
there have been several reports of captive tigers mauling humans in recent years . in a 2009 attack , chinese cops shot and killed two siberian tigers after they pounced on a zoo worker .
about 500 siberian or amur tigers are left in the wild , with 95 % of them in the russian far east . within the tiger’s range in russia , the largest protected area is the sikhote - alin biosphere reserve , a 400 , 000 ha ( 4000 km
size : the siberian tiger can reach a length of up to 10 feet , with the tail attaining an average length of about 3 feet . the height of these felids is 3 to 3 ½ feet ( . 9 – 1 . 1m ) at the shoulders .
a tigon is a hybrid bit cat that results from the crossbreeding of a tiger and lioness . tigons have a fur like lion and stripes like tiger .
the amur tiger is found mostly in the area of manchuria which is close to the amur river . around south central china is where you will find the south chinese tiger . the southeast of china is where you will find the indo - chinese tiger . around indonesia is the home of the sumatran tiger .
on november 21 - 24 , 2010 , st petersburg hosted the international tiger conservation forum which featured representatives of 13 countries that have wild tigers . the forum participants approved a global programme for the restoration of the tiger population and a declaration of tiger conservation . russia will enact a national amur tiger conservation strategy .
villagers in north - east china have long endured frigid winters , scorching summers and an occasional drought , but some now have something else to worry about : possible attacks by wild siberian tigers .

according to the world wildlife fund , the present population of these extremely rare mammals is 400 ( as of 2014 ) . the main cause of the rapid fall of the population of the siberian tiger is poaching . these tigers have frequently been hunted down for their skin .
siberian tigers have also been losing habitat to increasing human activity—primarily logging and road - building—as well as to changes brought about by global warming . drier , hotter conditions , along with frequent , devastating forest fires , have been a major effect of climate change on tiger habitat .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
common : revillagigedo islands ( reyes - bonilla 2003 ) , malpelo ( glynn and ault 2000 ) and gorgona islands ( zapata and vargas - ángel 2003 ) .
rare : gulf of california and nearby areas , nayarit , jalisco , colima , guerrero and oaxaca ( reyes - bonilla 2003 ) ; costa rica including cocos island , and ecuador including the galápagos islands ( glynn and ault 2000 ) .
is likely to be moderately common in panama ( reported at 24 sites in las perlas and 77 sites in gulf of chiriqui ) , colombia and costa rica . in addition , according to jiménez and cortés ( 2003 ) ,
can be found in moderate abundance at culebra bay , costa rica . likewise , in the galápagos islands , this coral is moderately common in the northern archipelago ( hickman 2005 ) but uncommon in the central region ( hickman and chiriboga pers . comm . ) . in addition , guzmán
. pers . comm . ) , following the severe coral mortality associated with recent enso events ( 1982 - 83 and 1997 - 98 ) and red tides .
in the galápagos islands , pocilloporid communities were well developed off northeastern san cristobal , espanola and floreana island until the 1980s ( glynn 1994 , 2003 ) , but disappeared following the 1982 - 83 enso event , with minimal coral recruitment since ( glynn 2003 ) .
there is no species specific population information available for this species . however , there is evidence that overall coral reef habitat has declined , and this is used as a proxy for population decline for this species . this species is more resilient to some of the threats faced by corals and therefore population decline is estimated using the percentage of destroyed reefs only ( wilkinson 2004 ) . we assume that most , if not all , mature individuals will be removed from a destroyed reef and that on average , the number of individuals on reefs are equal across its range and proportional to the percentage of destroyed reefs . reef losses throughout the species ' range have been estimated over three generations , two in the past and one projected into the future .
the age of first maturity of most reef building corals is typically three to eight years ( wallace 1999 ) and therefore we assume that average age of mature individuals is greater than eight years . furthermore , based on average sizes and growth rates , we assume that average generation length is 10 years , unless otherwise stated . total longevity is not known , but likely to be more than ten years . therefore any population decline rates for the red list assessment are measured over at least 30 years .
