Tiger

Unlike most members of the cat family, tigers like water. They are good swimmers and often cool off in pools or streams. When a tiger wants to be heard, you’ll know about it, because their roar can be heard as far as three kilometres away. They may be big and heavy, but tigers are by no means slow movers. In fact, at full speed they can reach up to 65km/h!Today, there are five subspecies of tiger: Bengal, South China, Indochinese, Sumatran and Siberian. Sadly, three subspecies of tiger have become extinct – Caspian, Bali and Javan.
