What is the Bengal Tiger?
The Bengal Tiger, or Panthera Tigris Tigris , is a species that originated in India, Nepal and Bangladesh. This particular type of tiger is currently endangered because only a few thousand remain around the world. It has a distinctive formula of the coat of orange and black stripes that disappears on the white lower abdomen. The Bengal tigers were extinct due to excessive poaching and loss of habitats.
Indian tigers are large animals. Males weigh more than £ 400 (about 181 kg), while women weigh about £ 300 (£ 136). However, the North Bengal -Tygians are even greater - in some cases more than £ 500 (about £ 227). A typical Bengal diet includes large animals such as sambar - a type of large deer - and a wild boar.
Since their natural habitat is slowly taking over people, the tigers also attack farm animals for food. Going to the neck is how tigers usually attack their prey. One prey is caught, a fully grown tiger can eat up to £ 80 (about 36 kg) raw meat on oneseating.
Tigers, especially the Royal Bengal Tigers, are not as social as the lions. They do not live in family groups or pride, because men do not help women raise their offspring. Male tigers are territorial and they will mark leaves and trees urine to warn other men and attract women. Male tigers are also much more aggressive than women.
The Male Bengal Tiger is not considered to be grown up to four or five years. Females mature about a year earlier. At this time, Tigers will join among the coldest months. Women remain pregnant for about 106 days and give birth to a litter of one to four pups. Children weigh only about 2 pounds (0.9 kg) when they are born.
Suckling takes several months, then the young start eating the same meals as the mother. Motje tigers teach their chicks to hunt and survive. At the age of several months they will learn to help their mothers take off their prey. The chicks live with their mothers until they reach the age of 18months when they go and look for their own friends.
Male Bengal Tiger leaves his mother and siblings to establish his own territory. Females tend to remain closer to their birth. Once the mother of Tiger's mother remains, he tends to go back to the heat to carry another litter, and the cycle continues.
