TIGERS

The Amur tigers were on the verge of extinction (на грани вымирания) not so long ago. That's why the Amur tiger is listed in the Red Book of Russia. 

The area of this tiger is concentrated on the banks of the Amur and Ussuri rivers in the Far East. The Amur tiger is the most northern tiger. Its wool is thicker than the wool of tigers living in warmer areas, and its color is lighter. The basic coat color in winter is orange but the belly is white. His usual prey (добыча) is deer, roe, wild boar, elk, lynx (рысь). Tigers occupy vast areas: tigeresses 300-500 square kilometers. And tigers (males) even more: 500-800 square kilometers.

The Amur tiger is concentrated in a protected area so today it is no longer on the verge of extinction.

Climate is the weather in a certain place over a long period of time. Climate has a very important influence on plants, animals and humans and is different in different parts of the world. Sometimes there is little snow in January, and there were winters when it rained on the New Year's Eve. Many people say that it is so because of the greenhouse effect.
Weather is not the same as climate. The climate of a place or region represents the average weather conditions over a long period of time.
The weather at a place is the state of the atmosphere there at a given time or over a short period. It can be hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy.
There are five climatic zones on this planet: the equatorial climate zone, the tropical climate zone, the temperate climatic zone, Arctic and Antarctic climate belts.
The climate of Belarus is conditioned by the country inland locations, dominations of flat relief and relative remoteness from the Atlantic Ocean.
