TIGER
Tigers are currently listed as endangered. There are only around 3,900 tigers existing in the wild compared to 1,00,000 tigers at the start of 20th century. Tigers love water and are fantastic swimmers. Tigers are so powerful, they can take down prey weighing up to five times their own body weight. Tigers are solitary animals. They almost always travel alone. Individual tigers roam across large areas of land, which are called thehome ranges. Body They weigh about 100–300 kg and grow 4–10 feet long. They have super soft pads on their feet, so they can move soundlessly when stalking prey. A tiger’s tail is around 3 feet in length. It is mainly used for balance. A tiger shows it is relaxed by letting its tail hang loosely. If a tiger is feeling aggressive, it will rapidly move its tail from side to side or hold it low. Tiger roars are powerful and can travel long distances (they can be heard as far as 3 km away). Cubs are born blind and do not open their eyes until about
