About Siberian tiger
This tiger belongs to Biocraftlab's Boreal Forest series, articulated animals from the northern forests. Its neck, back and tail have hinged parts, so it lies flat, prowls or looks over its shoulder. The figure is printed in one piece, with the hinges built in. Designed by Biocraftlab.
We print it in the colours you see in the photos: orange with black stripes and a white snout. Hang it on your keys or bag, or stand it on a shelf. Key ring included. This is decoration, not a toy; not suitable for children under 3 (small parts).

Animal keychains
How many Siberian tigers are still living in the wild?
According to WWF, about 760 Amur tigers, as the Siberian tiger is also called, still live in the wild (2023 figure). They live in the Russian Far East and the neighbouring north-east of China. That is far more than around 1940, when only about 30 were left. At the start of the twentieth century there were still more than 1,000.
Amur tiger or Siberian tiger?
It is the same animal. It is named after the Amur region on the border between Russia and China. It is built for harsh winters: according to WWF, its long, thick winter coat lets it cope with temperatures down to -45 °C.
An Amur tiger lives alone. In the Sikhote-Alin mountains, more than 80 per cent of its food consists of red deer and wild boar.
How do you count tigers?
Russia holds a full count about once every ten years, in winter, when tracks in the snow are easy to follow. The 2005 count came to about 450 tigers, the 2014 and 2015 count to at least 523. Each tiger also has its own stripe pattern.
Such a count remains an estimate. So for every figure, look at the year and at who did the count; then you can compare numbers from different sources properly.
Why the number is growing again
- A hunting ban and better protection helped the Amur tiger recover.
- In China, according to WWF, the number of tigers grew from about 20 in 2016 to around 70 now.
According to WWF, around 5,500 wild tigers of all subspecies together live in the world again, after a low of about 3,200. The tiger nevertheless remains an endangered species.
The tiger on your bag
Biocraftlab's tiger has hinged parts in its neck, back and tail, so it moves along when your bag swings. Because the parts are printed together in one go, the hinges need exactly the right clearance: too tight and they stick, too loose and the figure goes floppy. You can read more about this in the knowledge-base article on tolerances in 3D printing.
A tiger suits someone who loves big cats, or as a reminder of a zoo visit. Add a card with the figure from this guide: that way a small gift gets a story.
