Endangered Amur Tiger Sayan excitedly enjoys the snow at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park.

Meanwhile the park’s other resident tiger Tschuna also looked happy as temperatures plummeted.

Both reside in the spectacular ‘Land of the Tigers’ and the snow was a taste of home for the Amur Tiger, more commonly known as the Siberian Tiger and the largest big cat in the world. The Amur Tiger is native to the Russian Far East and Northeast China, where the natural habitat is usually covered in deep white snow and temperatures can fall as low as -40°C.
