Tiger
At least 100 vertical stripes & weighing up to 300kg make the tiger striking! There are less than 2500 worldwide. They are patient hunters – stalking their prey & then ambushing them.
Their large front paws are powerful – one swipe could kill an adult instantly. The tiger hunts once or twice a week, covering its leftovers with grass/dirt & returning to the same spot for smaller snacks. A litter bears about 7 cubs but only 2 will survive as there isn’t enough food for them all.
