S. Korea opens arboretum with released Siberian tigers

Two Siberian tigers — a 13-year-old female named Hancheong and a seven-year-old male named Uri — stroll in a “tiger forest” in the National Baekdu-daegan Arboretum, located on a mountain range in Bonghwa, a town in South Korea’s southeast province of North Gyeongsang, on May 3, 2018. The Korea Forest Service opened the arboretum, which was established on a 27,600-square-meter site, making it one of the largest of its kind in Asia. The establishment of the tiger forest is part of the country’s efforts to preserve the endangered species in the wild. (Yonhap)
