FACTS
ABOUT TIGERS -
• Scientific name
of the Tiger: PANTHERA TIGRIS.
• Tigers are the biggest cats in the world, weighing up to 500
pounds and 6 feet in length, not including a 3 foot tail.
• Tigers have been classified into 5 subspecies. These are the
Royal Bengal, Siberian, Indo-Chinese, South-china and the Sumatran
tiger.
• The Bali Tiger is now extinct. Loss of habitat was the main
cause of this subspecies extinction.
• There are a total of 29 Tiger Reserves in India. They cover
approximately 1.17% of the total geographical area.
• Just like the human fingerprint, the stripes on the tiger are
unique to that individual. In fact people who thoroughly observe
the tiger population of an area can distinguish between them.
• Tigers have enhanced vision as compared to us humans. They see
6 times better!
• A tiger can eat 80 pounds of meat in one sitting.
• A tiger makes a successful kill once in every twenty attempts.
They are ambush predators and must rely on their stealth and not
speed. They hunt mainly at dawn and dusk.
• India has the largest population of wild tigers in the world.
The most recent tiger count yielded a truly disturbing figure.
Only 1400 individuals are left.
• A captive tiger has never been successfully reintroduced into
the wild because a human surrogate mother cannot teach the cubs
the skills they would have learnt in the forest as cubs.
• The life expectancy of the tiger is between 10 – 15 Years in
the wild, and 15 – 20 in captivity.
• Last but not the least Tigers are on the list of endangered
species. Radical conservation steps need to be taken to save this
beautiful animal from extinction.
