Product Information
In The Great Soul of Siberia, renowned tiger researcher Sooyong Park tracks three generations of Siberian tigers living in remote southeastern Russia. Reminiscent of the way Timothy Treadwell (the so-called Grizzly Man) immersed himself in the lives of bears, Park sets up underground bunkers to observe the tigers, living thrillingly close to these beautiful but dangerous apex predators. At the same time, he draws from twenty years of experience and research to focus on the Siberian tigers' losing battle against poaching and diminishing habitat. Over the two years of his harrowing stakeout, Park's poignant and poetic observations of the tigers draw a fiercely compassionate portrait of these elusive, endangered creatures.

This DVD was a purchase by my 9-year-old daughter, with her own money, so it was important to us. The DVD had obviously not been cleaned (it was disgusting), but even worse, it had two large cracks in it. One of the cracks was all the way through the DVD, and ran the entire radius of the DVD. It had obviously not even been looked at. This company has an automatic return system, so I received a 100% refund, but that's not the point. The seller didn't even apologize.
