Tiger
I remember when I first saw a tiger and began to think, what is this large stripped animal? I was so curious about what this animal could do or, what type of sound it made? This was all new to me seeing a tiger for the first time and was curious where it came from. My Oldest sister took me to the zoo during summer school break and we to see all the animals, but the tiger caught my attention quickly!! I just kept staring at this large animal as if I was in some... kind of hypnotic state of mind. I notice there was information posted about the tiger and where it came from and it's living conditions and how it hunts for food in the wild.
The tiger (panthera tigris) is the largeset species among the felidae and classified in the genus panthera. It is most reconisable for it's dark vertical stripes on orangish-brown fur with a lighter underside. It is an apex predator, primarily preying on ungulates such as deer and wild boar. It is territorial and generally a solitary but social predator, requiring large areas of habitat, which supports it's requierments for preand rearing of it's offspring. Tiger cubs stay with there mother for about two years, before they become independent and leave their mother's home range to establish their own.
