The Indochinese tiger (also known as the Corbett's tiger) is a subspecies of tiger, found throughout south-east Asia. Their preferred habitat is forests in mountainous or hilly regions. The Indochinese tiger is now an endangered species and actually thought to be extinct in the Chinese wild since 2007.
The Indochinese tiger is found throughout Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Burma, and Vietnam. The Indochinese tiger is a medium sized species of tiger that is found inhabiting the secluded forests in the mountainous regions that generally lie along the borders between countries. This makes studying the Indochinese tiger very difficult so not much is known about them.
Males average 108 inches (270 cm) in total length and weigh between 150–195 kg (331–430 lb), while females average 96 inches (240 cm) and 100–130 kg (220–290 lb). The Malayan tigers found in Malaysia and parts of Thailand were once thought to be the same as the Indochinese tiger and it was only recently that the two were classified as separate subspecies. In 2010, the total population was estimated at about 350 individuals.
