Siberian tigers hunt bears. That’s how badass they are. Okay, but why should you read a book about a search for a man-eating Amur tiger, the world’s largest land predator, in the most remote parts of the earth? Because it’s one of the best damn books you’ll ever read, that’s why. And in the process, you’ll learn about Russian history, Communism, Russian-Chinese relations, Siberian tundra and taiga, tiger lore, perestroika, tiger physiology, the Afghan war, poaching, black markets, being a nature warden, extinction, duty, vengeance and survival. Vaillant’s sorcery is in his ability to take you inside the head of the hunted villagers, the hunters, and the Amur tiger, as if you are there. The whole thing reads like a thriller, and yes, you will probably stay up way too late reading it. I came away with a deeper appreciation of the majesty of nature and our place in it as current top predator.
This book is an exciting true story that seems impossible to put down at times. The Tiger that is being hunted by and hunting man is a complex individual with motives that seem both rational and moral when analysed by the scientists and people who live among them. The Tiger only hunts the individuals who hurt him or his family or pose an active threat to him. Tigers have existed for thousands of years next to men who respect them and accept their right to live and hunt to survive. The tigers have lived peacefully among the men who have refused to hunt or harm them.By the end of this book you will support efforts to save the Amir tiger from extinction. The welfare of the tiger is a significant indication of the health of the society which surrounds him.
I loved this book. I read an excerpt of it in a magazine and I was hooked. I bought it and read it in a few days. It's a great window into an animal and a part of the world that I didn't know anything about but found fascinating. It's years later and I still think about the environment and characters in this book, and the atmosphere the author created in this story. The book is for anyone looking for a great read - a great story well told.
I’ve always been fascinated with stories of life in harsh environments and I love mysteries, spy novels, and historical fiction. When the BBC ran a brief piece on the series of events recounted in this book, it seemed like a good time to take a break from my reading routine and I was not at all disappointed. The book is an amazing account of both the impact of political and economic change wrought by perestroika and its impact on both the human and animal populations of the far East of Russia, and especially the Amur tigers which are unique to that area. The book manages to weave very complex discussion of geopolitical and economic events into the retelling of the events leading up to the death of a hunter/trapper/poacher and the subsequent investigations and tracking down of a man-eating tiger. By the end of the book one can only feel immense sorrow for all of the characters in the story; not only the people left to fend for themselves in an unforgiving land, and the desperate situation the Amur tigers face as they lose their status as the majestic masters of the wild, as their numbers dwindle due to habitat destruction, poaching, and as their human neighbors slowly lose respect for the tigers’ position as a sacred part of the natural environment all these beings share. As it happens the humans and the tigers in this story share the same fate: They are all in decline and it’s a tragedy of monumental proportion. All in all the author has done an amazing job of telling this tale with respect and empathy for all the players, and this book is well worth a careful read.
The prose is thick with novelistic touches, which does its trick of drawing you in to this intense tale of a man-eating tiger that terrorizes the back woods of far eastern part of Russia. The book is at its best when it sticks closely to the main players and the plight of its people who live well below the poverty levels. They do not live they merely survive. The author goes in depth about the area's history in political back story, as well as the ecological, and socio-economical. These parts of the book can be tedious when all you want to do is dive back into the core story of survival and tiger hunting. The detailed information the author provides on these majestic Amur tigers is fascinating. They are the largest tiger species, some males grow to be as big as 900 lbs.The story eventually kicks in to high gear when Moscow gives the greenlight to hunt down the man-eating tiger. In these parts of the book it recalls the frenzied mob of amateur fishermen going after the shark in Jaws. The climactic confrontation between the tiger and the protagonist of the book is nothing short of cinematic. It's some exciting stuff.Incidentally, Hollywood may be getting closer to translating this book to the screen. Brad Pitt had been attached to star with Darren Aronofsky directing many years ago. They now have a new director attached (Michaël R. Roskam - The Drop). I hope they do the book justice.
I only read nonfiction occasionally and this book was recommended to me by my son, who lives in Alaska. He read it based on the recommendation of a friend who is an Arctic Biologist that had visited Pacific Russia regarding some Arctic Research and learned of the Amur Tiger issues.It was a very good book to read for many reasons beyond the story of this tiger. The explanations of living conditions in Russia from the 1980s through 1997 are extremely important to provide the background of the environmental and economic problems that Russia has been dealing with poorly since the breakup of the USSR. The author also touches on several other dilemmas that Russians face in their Pacific region, such as the nearby booming economies of China, South Korea and Japan and the lack of vision from Moscow for their future. Past attempts by the USSR to wipe out native peoples cultures, governmental corruption, and outdated laws and processes are all woven into the fabric of this story. This book should be on the reading list for college biology, ecology and Russian History classes.
