Emergence
The Call of the Tiger National Park is the first national park in the Far East of Russia. A few days later, the Udegejskaja Legenda National Park was established north . Both national parks serve primarily to protect the Siberian tiger . Together they cover around one eighth of the Primorye region . The designation of the protected areas was preceded by over 20 years of planning, in which the WWF was significantly involved.
