What is the tiger?
The
tigers are Panthera Tigris and are also honored, hunted and protected. Typically orange with black striped (some are white due to genetic mutation), which can be carnivores exceptionally large. In fact, there are several subspecies of tigers that live in parts of Asia, and although these species can join, have separate differences, tolerate different types of habitats and may vary in size and proliferation. The largest men of subspecies, Siberia, can weigh about £ 660 (£ 299.37) and have a tail length of 13 feet (3.96 m).
Some of these subspecies are now close to extinction and several of them are already extinct. For example, subspecies like Balines, Javan and Caspian are gone. South China subspecies are likely to disappear, although the Chinese government now prohibits hunting these tigers. There were few observations of this animal and only a few of them in the zoo. Other types include Bengal, Indočík, Malayan, Sumatran and Siberian tiger. Virtually all tigers are at risk and hunting tiger, even ifIt is illegal, still exists.
In the wild, life expectancy is about 15-20 years, but in human captivity animals can live longer. The animal reaches sexual maturity at the age of about three to four years and connects for a short time and then separates. Only women and chicks live together, even if the chicks can stay with their mothers until they reach maturity. The chicks are threatened by mature men who want to connect because they can try to kill smaller chicks to encourage the mother's urge to re -connect.
Tigers are not carnivores not by selecting or custom, but a necessity. They are called carnivores because they have to eat meat to survive. What types of meat are usually consumed depends on the subspecies and the location of the tiger. In general, these mammals will eat different medium -sized animals that are small enough to easily solve. Occasionally there were descriptions of attacks on Asian elephants and crocodiles,But usually tigers make more sense than attacking creatures that have such great potential to hurt them.
These huge cats are increasingly coming into contact with people, leading to some tiger attacks on people. Mostly animals avoid human sites when they can, but are opportunistic. They are sometimes marked as Man-Eaters and there are many accounts of attacks on people, both in the wild and captivity. Even trained animals attacked and critically injured their coaches.
Their wilderness cannot be trained and their size and unpredictability can make them treacherous. However, about 12,000 tigers are owned in the US as pets. In captivity, there is a higher number of tigers the total wild population.
The small population of all combined subspecies In most cases, these animals are very endangered and in some cases hunted for extinction. Some mythology, especially in Asian medicine, suggest that some parts of the tiger may increase fertility or endurance. The animals were also hunted for their fur, or just because they are the largest of the big cats. It is more positive that tigers are sometimes considered mystical forces; They are one of the 12 Chinese signs of the zodiac and are weapons, national flags and can be almost worshiped. The animal did not help much, although there is now a considerable effort to protect wild tigers and perhaps increase their population.
