	Ussuri (cat) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ussuri is a rare natural breed of cat that originates from the region of the Amur river, Russia.
		It is reputed to be derived from natural hybrids with small wild cats known as "Amur Forest Cats" and "Amur Leopard Cats" (Asian Leopard Cat subspecies, the same species used in the Bengal breed).
		The Ussuri's numbers are dwindling due to interbreeding with local domestic cats and, without a breeding programme to preserve the strain, it will disappear.

	Foreign Affairs - Why the Russians Lifted the Blockade at Bear Island - Neville Maxwell
		Establishing a matching blockade on the Ussuri, the Soviet Union, by the exercise of superior military force, thus denied China the right, which it had exercised since the establishment of the People's Republic, to send vessels from one river to another through the confluence.
		The 1860 Treaty of Peking, which made the Amur and the Ussuri Rivers the boundary between the empires of China and Russia, stipulates that the boundary lies through the rivers' confluence.
		The Soviet Union has occupied that island, known to the Chinese as Hei Hsia-tzu or "Bear Island," since the late 1920s; Peking maintains that it is legally Chinese territory, and the stretches of the border rivers alongside it, international waterways.

	Tigers in the Snow
		Ussuria or Ussuri Land was all but unknown to the West until early in the twentieth century, when it was explored by Vladimir K. Arseniev, a young army lieutenant, geographer, and naturalist who made three expeditions there between 1902 and 1908 in order to map the wild Primorski Krai, or Maritime Province.
		Arseniev was subsequently described as "the great explorer of Eastern Siberia" by the Arctic explorer Fridtjof Nansen, who expressed astonishment that this region of the Asian land mass had remained less known than the wildest Indian countries of North America.
		For all of these prey animals, the tiger competed with the leopard in the south and the wolf in the north and also with brown and fl bears, which are primarily vegetarian but also opportunists; the brown bear will often dispute a tiger's kill.
