After a count in 2005, It was estimated that there are around 400 to 500 tigers living in the wild. Though this is a low number, fortunately it is remaining steady, and is even higher than in previous years. There are about 500 living in captivity, but I'm not sure if that includes sanctuaries and zoos, or just zoos. So that means that there are about the same number of tigers living in captivity as there are in the wild. Hopefully the wild population will increase, because theses tigers are critically endangered. Yes, there is a wild population of siberian tigers.
