Which mammal has types called Siberian and Bengal?
"traversed Siberia eastward to establish the Siberian tiger population in the Russian Far East. The Caspian and Siberian tiger populations were the northernmost in mainland Asia. The Siberian tiger was also called Amur tiger, Manchurian tiger, Korean tiger, and Ussurian tiger, depending on the region where individuals were observed. The tiger is reddish-rusty, or rusty-yellow in colour, with narrow black transverse stripes. The body length is not less than , condylobasal length of skull , zygomatic width , and length of upper carnassial tooth over long. It has an extended supple body standing on rather short legs with a fairly"
"had a heavy meal before it was killed, without which it would have weighed significantly less. Likewise, the record length for a tiger's skull was ""over the bone"" for a tiger that was shot in 1927 in northern India. The Bengal and Siberian tigers are amongst the tallest cats in shoulder height. They are also ranked with the Caspian tiger among the biggest cats that ever existed. However, on average, a wild adult male Siberian tiger at body weight is outweighed by an adult, male Bengal tiger at . A well-known allele found only in the Bengal population produces the"
"Bengal cat The Bengal is a domestic cat breed developed to look like exotic wild cats such as leopards, ocelots, margays and clouded leopards. Bengal cats were developed by selective breeding from hybrids of the Asian leopard cat, ""Prionailurus bengalensis bengalensis"", with domestic cat, backcrossed to domestic cats, with the goal of creating a confident, healthy, and friendly cat with a highly contrasted and vividly marked coat. The name ""Bengal cat"" was derived from the taxonomic name of the Asian leopard cat (""P. b. bengalensis""). They have a ""wild"" appearance with large spots/rosettes/arrowheads, and a light/white belly, and a body"
"Siberian weasel The Siberian weasel (""Mustela sibirica"") is a medium-sized weasel native to Asia, where it is widely distributed and inhabits various forest habitats and open areas. It is therefore listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Siberian weasels have long, stretched out bodies with relatively short legs, but are more heavily built than solongois, stoats and least weasels. Their heads are elongated, narrow and relatively small, and their ears are broad at the base, but short. Their tails represent half their body length. Siberian weasels are much larger than stoats and solongois, and almost approach ferrets and"
"India's only Siberian tiger from 2001 until its death in November 2011. The tiger, named Kunal, was half of a pair of tigers brought from Darjeeling in 1997. His older brother, named Mahesh, died in 2001. The zoo has several endangered species of animals in the Himalayas, and animals like Royal Bengal tiger, Tibetan wolves, sambar, leopard cat and Himalayan bear. It also has a vast collection of high altitude birds, like kalij pheasant, Lady Amherst pheasant, rose ringed parakeet, golden pheasant and red junglefowl. The zoo has night shelters for the animals, and curtains are put up in the"

Skin, hair and blood samples from 71 tigers collected in various Indian zoos, in the National Museum in Kolkata and including the two hair samples from Dudhwa National Park were prepared for microsatellite analysis that revealed that two tigers had alleles in two loci that were contributed by Bengal and Siberian tiger subspecies. However, samples of two hybrid specimens constituted a too small base to conclusively presume that ""Tara"" was the source of the Siberian tiger genes. For his contributions"
"Bengal bush lark The Bengal bush lark (""Mirafra assamica"") or Bengal lark is a species of lark in the family Alaudidae found in southern Asia. The differences within the genus ""Mirafra"" are often very subtle and confusing with many differences apparent only when specimens are examined in hand. The Bengal bush lark was earlier classified into several races, the Bengal race ""assamica"" and the Madras race ""affinis"".

"Siberian chipmunk The Siberian chipmunk or common chipmunk (""Eutamias sibiricus"") appears across northern Asia from central Russia to China, Korea, and Hokkaidō in northern Japan. The Siberian chipmunk was imported from South Korea and introduced in Europe as a pet in the 1960s. It is the only chipmunk found outside North America, and this animal is classed either as the only living member of the genus ""Eutamias"", or as a member of a genus including all chipmunks. Although these animals can exhibit slight variations in coloration in different geographic regions, they possess several common characteristics. Typically the Siberian chipmunk has"

""Vulpes bengalensis"" is a relatively small fox with an elongated muzzle, long, pointed ears, and a bushy tail about 50 to 60% of the length of the head and body. Its dorsal pelage is very variable, but mostly grayish and paler ventrally; its legs tend to be brownish or rufous. It is more"
"Siberian Husky The Siberian Husky (, lit: Sibirskiy Haski) is a medium size working dog breed that originated in Northeast Asia. The breed belongs to the Spitz genetic family. With proper training, they make great home pets and sled dogs. It is recognizable by its thickly furred double coat, erect triangular ears, and distinctive markings. The original Siberian Huskies were bred by the Chukchi people whose hunter-gatherer culture relied on their help. It is an active, energetic, resilient breed, whose ancestors lived in the extremely cold and harsh environment of the Siberian Arctic. William Goosak, a Russian fur trader, introduced"

"Baikal teal The Baikal teal (""Sibirionetta formosa""), also called the bimaculate duck or squawk duck, is a dabbling duck that breeds in eastern Russia and winters in East Asia. The first formal description of the Baikal teal was by the German naturalist Johann Gottlieb Georgi in 1775 under the binomial name ""Anas formosa"". A molecular phylogentic study published in 2009 found that the genus ""Anas"" as then defined was non-monophyletic. Based on this analysis the genus was split into four proposed genera with the Baikal teal placed in the resurrected genus ""Sibirionetta"" that had been introduced by the German zoologist"
"Siberian cat The Siberian is a landrace variety of domestic cat, present in Russia for centuries, and more recently developed as a formal breed, with standards promulgated since the late 1980s. They vary from medium to medium-large in size. A longer name of the formal breed is Siberian Forest Cat, but it is usually referred to as the Siberian or the Siberian cat. Another name for the formal breed is the Moscow Semi-Longhair. The cat is an ancient breed that is now believed to be ancestral to all modern long-haired cats. The cat has similarities with the Norwegian forest cat,"
"structure reminiscent of the Asian leopard cat. Bengals are an intelligent and active breed, and are known for being especially vocal and friendly. Once separated by at least four generations from the original Asian leopard cat – domestic cat crossing, the breed's temperament resembles that of a domestic cat. Bengal cats are generally a bright orange to light brown color, although pale or off-white ""snow"" Bengals also exist, and are popular among owners. The earliest mention of an Asian leopard cat × domestic cross was in 1889, when Harrison Weir wrote of them in ""Our Cats and All About Them""."
"Siberian Tiger Introduction Project The Siberian Tiger Introduction Project involves reestablishing populations of the Siberian tiger (""Panthera tigris alatica)"", also known as the Amur tiger, in their former range and also expanding their range by introducing them as replacements of their genetically similar relative, the extinct Caspian tiger (""Panthera tigris virgata""), which inhabited Central and Western Asia. Currently, the Siberian tiger inhabits the cold mountains of the Russian Far East and northern China. Genetic studies have revealed that Siberian and Caspian tigers are descended from the tiger population that colonized Central Asia about 10,000 years ago. Siberian tigers used to"

It is physically very similar to the Senegal bushbaby, and was formerly considered to be its southern race. The two species differ markedly in their biology however, and no hybrids have been recorded in captivity. The Mohol bushbaby is a medium size species with a head-and-body length of and a tail of .The head is broad, with a short muzzle, orange eyes and diamond-shaped black eye-rings.

"an exceptionally agile jumper, the Siberian is a strong and powerfully built cat, with strong hindquarters and large, well rounded paws and an equally large full tail. They have barrelled chests and medium/large sized ears, large eyes, broad foreheads, and stockier builds than other cats. Their large round eyes give an overall sweet expression to their face. Siberians have a slight arch to their back, because their hind legs are a bit longer than the front legs. This shape contributes to their incredible agility and athleticism. While there is no truly hypoallergenic cat or dog, the decreased dander qualities of"
"results from prior studies, though the low end is below expected results. All Siberians tested were found to produce some Fel d1, with the highest levels being found in Siberians that have silver coloured fur. About half of Siberians were found to have Fel d1 levels lower than other breeds, while under twenty percent would be considered very low. Within the low group, males and females had comparable allergen levels. Siberians express the three natural types of feline fur: guard hairs, awn hairs, and down. These three layers protect the cat from the Russian weather extremes, and provide a hardy,"
"t. tigris"". The Bengal tiger is defined by three distinct mitochondrial nucleotide sites and 12 unique microsatellite alleles. The pattern of genetic variation in the Bengal tiger corresponds to the premise that it arrived in India approximately 12,000 years ago. This is consistent with the lack of tiger fossils from the Indian subcontinent prior to the late Pleistocene, and the absence of tigers from Sri Lanka, which was separated from the subcontinent by rising sea levels in the early Holocene. The Bengal tiger's coat is yellow to light orange, with stripes ranging from dark brown to black; the belly and"

Males are generally larger than females. Heavy individuals may weigh nearly 7.2 kg. The populations of India and Sri Lanka differ in the scalation from those of Myanmar, and these were once considered two species, but now considered two subspecies. The nominate subspecies is found west of Myanmar, while ""nebulosus"" is found to the east. The subspecies ""nebulosus"" is diagnosed by the presence of a"
"Siberian ibex The Siberian ibex (""Capra sibirica"") is a species of ibex that lives in central Asia. It has traditionally been treated as a subspecies of the Alpine ibex, and whether it is specifically distinct from other ibex is still not entirely clear. It is the longest and heaviest member of the genus ""Capra"", though its shoulder height is surpassed by the markhor. Siberian ibexes are large and heavily built goats, although individual sizes vary greatly. Males are between in shoulder height, and weigh between . Females are noticeably smaller, with heights between , and weights between . The nose"

Jean Mill (""née"" Sugden), the person who was later a great influence on the development of the modern Bengal breed, submitted a term paper for her genetics class at University of California, Davis on the subject of crossbreeding cats in 1946. In the 1970s, Willard Centerwall bred Asian leopard cats with domestic cats to aid his studies in genetics because of their apparent immunity to feline leukemia. Eventually, these hybrids were given to Jean Sudgen Mill because of Centerwall's illness. At the same time, Bill Engler wanted to preserve the exotic cats'"
"that looks similar to a serval, without using any recent wild cat blood. (Bengal cats originate from hybridization of leopard cats and domestic cats. Most Bengal cats used in Serengeti breeding programs are many generations removed from these origins and possess few genetic contributions of the wild forebears except alleles affecting coat color.) Serengetis are spotted cats, with long legs and very large, round tipped ears. They have a long neck which blends with the base of the skull without tapering. Males are generally slightly larger and heavier than females and can weigh between 10 and 15 lbs; females generally"
"Bengal florican The Bengal florican (""Houbaropsis bengalensis""), also called Bengal bustard, is a bustard species native to the Indian subcontinent, Cambodia and Vietnam. It is listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List because fewer than 1,000 individuals were estimated to be alive as of 2017. It is the only member of the genus ""Houbaropsis"". Adult Bengal floricans range from in length and stand around tall. The male has black plumage from the head and neck to underparts. Its head carries a long lanky crest, and the neck has elongated display plumes. The upperside is buff with fine black"

The Bengal tiger ranks among the biggest wild cats alive today. It is considered to belong to the world's charismatic megafauna. It is the national animal of both India and Bangladesh. It is also known as the Royal Bengal tiger. The Bengal is the traditional type locality for the binomen ""Panthera tigris"", to which the British taxonomist Reginald Innes Pocock subordinated the Bengal tiger in 1929 under the trinomen"
"Siberian tiger The Siberian tiger (""Panthera tigris tigris"", syn. ""Panthera tigris altaica"") is a tiger population in the Far East, particularly the Russian Far East and Northeast China. This population inhabits mainly the Sikhote Alin mountain region in southwest Primorye Province in the Russian Far East. The Siberian tiger once ranged throughout Korea, north China, Russian Far East, and eastern Mongolia. In 2005, there were 331–393 adult and subadult Siberian tigers in this region, with a breeding adult population of about 250 individuals. The population had been stable for more than a decade due to intensive conservation efforts, but partial"

In 2017, the Cat Specialist Group revised felid taxonomy and now recognizes all the tiger populations in mainland Asia as ""P. t. tigris"". Several reports have been published since the 1990s on the genetic makeup of the Siberian tiger and its relationship to other subspecies. One of the most important outcomes has been the discovery of low genetic variability in the wild population, especially when it comes to maternal or mitochondrial DNA lineages. It seems that a single mtDNA haplotype almost completely dominates the maternal lineages of wild Siberian"

In the 1990s, some tigers from Dhudhwa were observed which had the typical appearance of Siberian tigers: white complexion, pale fur, large head and wide stripes. With recent advances in science it was subsequently found that Siberian tigers' genes had polluted the otherwise pure Bengal tiger gene pool of Dudhwa National Park. It was proved later that Twycross Zoo had been irresponsible and maintained no breeding records, and had given India a hybrid Siberian-Bengal tigress instead, although at the time, and taking into account information received regarding all of the"
"they threaten native Hawaiian birds and are known to carry a parasite that can kill Hawaiian monk seals. After three generations from the original crossing, the breed usually acquires a gentle domestic cat temperament; however, for the typical pet owner, a Bengal cat kept as a pet should be at least four generations (F4) removed from the leopard cat. The so-called foundation cats from the first three filial generations of breeding (F1–F3) are usually reserved for breeding purposes (if female, as males of these generations are generally sterile) or the specialty pet home environment.
