19×24 colored pencil. Unavailable. The Siberian Husky is a medium-size, dense-coat working dog breed that originated in eastern Siberia, belonging to the Spitz genetic family. It is recognizable by its thickly-furred double coat, sickle tail, erect triangular ears and distinctive markings. An active, energetic and resilient breed whose ancestors came from the extremely cold and harsh environment of the Siberian Arctic, it was imported into Alaska during the Nome Gold Rush and spread from there into the United States and Canada, initially as a sled dog. It rapidly acquired the status of a family pet and a show-dog, no longer as much used as a sled dog as formerly; today it has been largely replaced in dogsled racing by crossbreds. Temperament / Despite their wolf-like appearance, Siberian Huskies generally have a gentle temperament. Being a working breed, Siberians are very energetic and enjoy the ability to explore and run. That, combined with their striking appearance, has made them popular as both family pets and as show dogs. Siberians can be extremely affectionate, curious (like all dogs), and welcoming to people, characteristics that usually render them poor guard dogs. Properly socialized Siberians are most often quite gentle with children. The harsh conditions in which Siberians originated rewarded a strong prey drive, as food was often scarce. Consequently, Siberians may instinctively attack animals such as house cats, birds, squirrels, guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, quail, and even deer, and have been known to savage sheep. However, many households enjoy harmonious, mixed “packs” of cats and Siberians; this works best when the dogs are raised with cats from puppyhood. The Siberian Husky is a pack dog. It does better in a family type. Which means if it is left alone for too long it gets lonely so breeders suggest getting a pair. A 2000 study of dog bites resulting in human fatalities by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found fifteen such fatalities (6% of the total) were caused by “husky-type” dogs (excluding Alaskan Malamutes) between 1979 and 1997. Most Huskies are not especially aggressive, but some dogs may have stronger prey drive than most, which may manifest itself in aggression towards humans. Behavior / As with any dog breed, Siberian Huskies do have some qualities which some pet owners may find undesirable. Despite their affectionate nature, Siberian Huskies are not as subservient and eager to please their owners as some other popular breeds, and will sometimes refuse to perform a task unless given a better “motive” than simply pleasing their trainer. Siberian Huskies can be challenging to train because of their strong will and independent thinking. Proper training requires persistence and patience. Siberian Huskies are not generally recommended for first time dog owners, as their strong will and desire to run are difficult for inexperienced owners to manage. Siberian Huskies have strong running instincts and therefore for their own safety should never be left to run free off-leash. They have little “homing instinct” and will run for long distances, and therefore should always be kept on a leash or in a fenced yard. Siberians can also dig large holes and will show considerable ingenuity in escaping from fenced runs. As sled dogs they have a very strong desire to pull, thus good obedience training is recommended. As mentioned they are known as escape artists, and they are a very common breed to run away. They will typically run away and then realize they have lost their owner, but are too far away to come back. Not only are they able to dig underneath fences, they are also known to jump over fences higher than 3 feet, and potentially even 4-5 feet tall fences. When playing with other dogs they will jump a lot, and sometimes even jump over other dogs. Siberians require exercise on a daily basis and a secure fence at all times. Although they do sometimes bark, they are more frequently known to “yodel”, “howl”, or “whoo”, often vocalizing when excited, back-talking to their owners, or to initiate some play or challenge behavior with either human or canine companions. This is commonly known as “ululation”. HealthSiberians are normally rather healthy dogs, typically living from eleven to fourteen years of age. Health issues in the breed are eye troubles (cataracts, glaucoma, and corneal dystrophy among others), allergies, and cancer in older animals. Hip dysplasia occurs but is not a major concern in the breed with high levels of protein and fat, particularly when used for dogsledding. That said, Siberian Huskies are fuel-efficient dogs, consuming less food than other dogs of similar size and activity level. The diet must be adjusted to their level of work and exercise; obesity can be a problem for underexercised, overfed pets. Due to their origins, Huskies do require some amount of fish oil in their diet, primarily for their coat and nails, which can become brittle without the fish oil. Most trainers/hobbyists recommend feeding Siberians sardines as a means to introduce fish oil into their diet, though flaxseed oil can be considered a less-expensive alternative to sardines.

Tampa Bay, Florida USA LARGE view for detail – Thank You! Intent on learning PhotoShop – I play! I hope this works well – as I DO NOT feel confident about work I have messed with in PS – At All! Sadly – The Siberian tiger is critically endangered! Siberian or AKA the ‘Amur’ tigers are the world’s largest cats. They live primarily in eastern Russia’s birch forests, though some exist in China and North Korea. There are an estimated 400 to 500 Siberian tigers living in the wild, and recent studies suggest that these numbers are stable. Though their northern climate is far harsher than those of other tigers, these animals have some advantages. Northern forests offer the lowest human density of any tiger habitat, and the most complete ecosystem. Tigers are the largest of all wild cats and are renowned for their power and strength. There were once eight tiger subspecies, but three became extinct during the 20th century. Over the last 100 years, hunting and forest destruction have reduced overall tiger populations from hundreds of thousands to perhaps 5,000 to 7,000. Tigers are hunted as trophies and also for body parts that are used in traditional Chinese medicine. All five remaining tiger subspecies are endangered, and many protection programs are in place. Poaching is a reduced—but still very significant—threat to Siberian tigers. / _____ / All The Materials Contained May Not Be Reproduced, Copied, Edited, Published, Transmitted Or Uploaded In Any Way Without My Permission.

Smudge Art TM. / Photography By: Madeline M. Allen Thank you for viewing my work. Image copyright © 2007, Madeline M. Allen Copying and displaying or redistribution of this image without permission from the artist is strictly prohibited Siberian Tiger in a Smudge Art TM. Frame There are an estimated 5,000 tigers left in the wild. There are currently more Siberian tigers in zoos than in the wild. / Distribution: / Tigers are found primarily in the Russian Far East, with small population in areas of northern China and North Korea. / Habitat/Range: / Tigers live in coniferous and hardwood forests that look very similar to the woodlands of the Tiger Mountain exhibit. All tigers have large territories and home ranges varying between 40 square miles to 400 square miles, but males tend to have larger ranges than females. Often a males territory will slightly overlap with several females. / Size: / Siberian tigers of the Russian Far East are larger than the Bengal tigers found in India – they have to have thicker fur and a layer of fat along their flanks to help protect them from freezing temperatures. Adult males average 9-11 feet in length and weigh between 450 and 600 pounds while adult females average 8-9 feet in length and weigh between 250 and 400 pounds.

An old photo but I thought I’d dig it out of the archives for you. This is a young Amur Tiger named Zambar (left) admiring his father (Gamin)’s nice sharp gnashers. The next moment Zambar put his head in Gamin’s mouth, but as typically happens, I ran out of space on my flashcard! :o(

A young woman in the early 20th century wrote this pictorial letter to a lover who jilted her for another woman. [I paraphrase] “I am alone in my house, we shared something and I miss it so. And even though you are now deeply in love with her, (and I’m sure she will bear you two strong children) I long for you. And my heart breaks, and I’m lonely for you, even though someone else is in love with me.” Author Unknown [from a philosophy class handout – no source to cite] This is acrylic on hardboard, 18” x 24”
