Tigers

A Tiger is a powerful carnivore, a hunter with sharp teeth, strong jaws, and a very agile body. Tigers do not live in Africa.  They live in Asia.  Tigers are an endangered species because their habitat is disappearing.

Tigers can live to 20 years of age in zoos but only 15 years in the wild.  Most wild tigers do not live that long.  Only half of all cubs survive to independence from their mother at about two years of age. Tigers are great swimmers.  The roar of a tiger can be heard over a mile away. They are the largest of all cats with males growing up to 3.3 metres long and weighing up to 180-250 kilograms.

Most tigers have more than 100 stripes.  Their stripes are much like a fingerprint, because no two tigers are exactly alike. Its favourite foods include elk, deer, wild boar, lynx and bear; wild boar makes up more than half of its diet. They will also eat fish, rabbits. Tigers can run very fast reaching speeds of up to 50 mph, however, they can only maintain this speed over short distances.
