Sikhote-Alin Nature Reserve (Russian pronunciation: [sʲɪxɐˈtɛ ɐˈlʲinʲ], English: /ˈskəˌt əˈln/, SEE-kə-TAY ə-LEEN) is a Russian 'zapovednik' (strict nature reserve) in Primorsky Krai. It is a reserve for the endangered Siberian tiger.

It was founded on February 10, 1935, to protect a population of the sable. The Sikhote-Alin Nature Reserve is located in a watershed on the eastern slopes of Central Sikhote-Alin in the Terneysky and Krasnoarmeysky Districts and the area of Dalnegorsk City Council.

The area of the zapovednik is 401,428 ha (2,900 ha - aquatic).[1]
