Poaching Poaching is one of the main threats to survival of Amur tiger and other rare and endangered species of Primorye. It is caused by huge demand and market for tiger and other wildlife parts mainly in neighboring China, and widespread corruption in Russian law enforcement agencies (e.g., among police officers, border guards, custom officers, etc) and difficult economic situation in Russia. With state authorities closing their eyes to wildlife crimes, illegally harvested wood is easily legalized and transported to China, and bear paws, gall bladders, musk and other valuable biological stimulants of animal origin are sold through “black holes” in the Russian- Chinese border.

Our projects Environmental law enforcement and habitat protection (anti-poaching teams of the state and public rangers who operate in Amur tiger and Amur leopard habitats); Conflict tiger cases resolution; Compensation of damage for cattle killed by leopards and tigers in Khasan district; Environmental education and outreach; Monitoring of oil and gas projects in Primorye.

Law enforcement anti-poaching units Phoenix supports teams of inspectors who conduct regular patrols in Primorsky and south Khabarovsky regions. They are:  14 law enforcement teams of Hunting Management Department,  anti-poaching teams of Udege Legend national park, Kedrovaya Pad and Lazovsky nature reserves.

Conflict tiger cases resolution An emergency response team was formed within Inspection Tiger in 2000 to investigate, solve, and prevent human-tiger conflicts. Depending on circumstances, investigation of a particular situation usually suggests involving scientists, nature reserves’ staff, Forest and Hunting Departments’ experts, law-enforcement officers, environmental committee’s regional branches Phoenix supports it with equipment and covers field and fuel expenses.

Compensation project Since 1999, with support from international charities, Phoenix has been paying compensation to farmers for cattle killed by leopards and tigers, in order to secure peaceful coexistence of people and predators and discourage the former from taking revenge
