Caspian tiger : ウィキペディア英語版 | Caspian tiger
The Caspian tiger (''Panthera tigris virgata''), also known as the Hyrcanian tiger, the Mazandaran tiger, the Persian tiger and the Turan tiger, is an extinct tiger subspecies that had been recorded in the wild until the early 1970s, and formerly inhabited the sparse forest habitats and riverine corridors west and south of the Caspian Sea, from Turkey, Iran and east through Central Asia into the Takla Makan desert of Xinjiang, China. There are no individuals in captivity. The Caspian tiger was formerly found in Chinese and Russian Turkestan, Afghanistan, Iran, and Turkey.〔Seidensticker, J., Christie, S. Jackson, P. (1999). ("Preface'' ). In Seidensticker, J., Christie, S. Jackson, P. (eds.) ''Riding the Tiger. Tiger Conservation in Human-dominated Landscapes''. Cambridge University Press, UK. Pp. X–XIX〕 The Caspian tiger together with the Siberian and Bengal tiger subspecies represented the largest living cat and ranked among the biggest cats that ever existed.〔Mazák, V. (1981).
