HARBIN, Dec. 17 (Xinhua) -- One of the world's
estimated 400 Siberian tigers living in the wild died of hunger after being
injured by trap and its body has been found in northeast China, police said on
Sunday.
Police officers in Dongning County, Heilongjiang Province said that they were trying to find out the person who
set up the trap and injured the male tiger.
The tiger was found dead on Dec. 11 by villagers in
the county.
Investigators suggested that the Siberian tiger
managed to break loose from a rope trap and was injured, which made it weak to
prey and finally died of hunger.
Siberian tigers, among the world's 10 most endangered
species, mostly live in northeast China and the Far East area of Russia. Of the
400 estimated ones living in the wild, only 10 to 17 live in northeast
China.
