Tigers are the largest cat species in the world and the third-largest carnivore on land--only polar and brown bears are larger. An adult Amur or Siberian tiger (the largest subspecies) can weigh up to 660 pounds. The Sumatran tiger is the smallest, with males only weighing up to 310 pounds. Females generally weigh less than males in all subspecies.
Tigers are the only cat species that are completely striped. They even have stripes on their skin.Stripe density varies by subspecies. The stripes on a Sumatran tiger are closer together than those on any other subspecies. No two tigers have the same stripes. Like human fingerprints, their stripe patterns are unique to each individual. Stripes range in color from light brown to black and are not symmetrical on both sides of the tiger.

I just reposted this pictured because i had to edit something. Sorry to anyone who commented or favored it before. A bengal tiger cub chewing on a stick. This wild tiger cub was hanging out in a tree with one of its siblings.
Cuando veo a Cordulegaster boltonii posado me quedo admirado de su anatomía, de sus colores y sobre todo de sus ojos verde esmeralda.
Cuando lo veo en la pantalla del ordenador juego con mi imaginación con las figuras que forman los dibujos abdominales. Veo la cara de Batman.

When I see Cordulegaster boltonii perched, I am amazed at his anatomy, his colors and especially his emerald green eyes.
When I see it on the computer screen, I play with my imagination with the figures that form the abdominal drawings. I see Batman's face.

This is one of three juvenile tiger siblings that we sighted in Ranthambore National Park, India. It's rare to see multiple tigers because they are solitary animals that will sometimes fight to the death over territory. We sighted three at once because they are siblings still under the protection of their mother. Male tigers have very large territories and can have multiple tigress territories within their own. There are now about 70 adult tigers in the park, which once had numbers as low as 16 or 17. The area remained mostly wild because little of it is suitable for agriculture. Tigers have unique stripe patterns so they are tracked and monitored by motion-sensitive cameras.

Ranthambore National Park is a national park in the Indian state of Rajasthan. It covers a total area of 1,334 km2 (515 sq mi). It is bounded to the north by the Banas River and to the south by the Chambal River. It is named after the historic Ranthambore Fort, which lies within the park. Ranthambore National Park was established as the Sawai Madhopur Game Sanctuary in 1955, initially covering an area of 282 km2 (109 sq mi). It was declared one of the Project Tiger reserves in 1974. It was declared as a national park in 1980.
The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest extant cat species and a member of the genus Panthera.

At the Houston Zoo, yesterday. I visited with a young 9 year old friend, and viewed the animals through new eyes. Lovely experience to see this youngster's enthusiasm.

A male bengal tiger crossing the road, he had picked up some scent and was sniffing around a lot, definitely on a mission...Bandipur Tiger Reserve, India
I think this is a Western Tiger Beetle, Cicindela oregona (but there are a couple of similar species). Found on a river bank in Montana.

Powerful, fast and beautiful.
Under the right circumstances, sometimes even cute (like on the photo), but also sneaky and of course dangerous. Overall, tigers are fascinating animals.
One of three tiger cubs born in captivity at Marwell Zoo.
It was Milla and Bagai’s first litter together. Both tigers were part of an important European Endangered species breeding Programme (EEP) which maintains a healthy captive population of tigers and preserves critical genetic diversity for the future.
In the 1940s, the Amur tiger was close to extinction with an estimated population of fewer than 30 individuals remaining in the wild. Decades of turmoil in Russia and formation of the former Soviet Union reportedly contributed to failures to stem uncontrolled persecution.
In 1947 the Soviet Union became the first country to introduce legislation that imposed protection, including banning hunting of tigers. Hunting of the tiger’s main prey species, boar and deer were also limited at this time.
Today, the Amur tiger has full priority species protection in both countries in which it occurs, Russia and China. The population is now estimated to be 360 individuals. However, poaching is still a threat to the species.
Hi Flickr friends and contacts, it's been a while since I posted, have been busy with other projects and activities. Will try to post at least 1 -2 a week again. Happy New Year to you all and look forward to exploring your streams again!
