_MG_6331 TIGERS

Tigers are the largest of all naturally occurring cat species. On average an adult male will reach weights of up to 500 pounds and have a length (from head to tip of tail) of 122 inches, while standing 40 inches at the shoulder.

 

They live in small pockets mainly in woodland habitat within their range, and can be found in some parts of Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Russia, Nepal, Vietnam and Thailand.

 

In the wild these Tigers generally live for 10 to 15 years, but in zoos they can be expected to live for up to 20 years or more.
