It is a large feline in the mammalian class, with nine subspecies and significant differences in body size and morphology between each subspecies. The Siberian tiger is the largest, with a male body length of up to 3.7 meters and a weight of 423 kilograms. The Sumatran tiger is the smallest living subspecies, with a male tiger measuring 2.34 meters in length and weighing 136 kilograms. Tigers are typical mountain forest dwelling animals that can thrive in tropical rainforests and evergreen broad-leaved forests in the south, as well as deciduous broad-leaved forests and mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests in the north. Due to human hunting and fragmentation of wild habitats, tigers have become rare and endangered species. A 2016 survey showed that there were 3890 wild tigers worldwide.

It is a large feline that often moves near the snow line and between snowy areas, hence the name "snow leopard". Snow leopards are distributed in the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, the Pamirs Plateau, the Tianshan Mountains, the Altai Mountains and other high mountain areas in western China and eastern Central Asia. Its fur is gray white with black spots and rings, and its tail is long and thick, making it an excellent protective color among rocks. It is known as the "King of Snow Mountains".
