all types of tigers.

  • The Bengal tiger lives in forested areas around the Indian sub-continent. Population estimates of approximately 4,000 make it the most populous of all tiger subspecies.
  • Indo-Chinese tigers live forested areas of South East Asian states such as China, Thailand and Myanmar. This species ranks as the second most populous with maybe around 2,000 living in the wild.
  • Sumatran tigers live on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. They are the smallest of the tiger species and there might be around 400 living in the wild.
  • Siberian or Amur tigers hold the distinction of being the biggest of the world's big cats. They live along the forests of the Amur River, a natural boundary line between Russia and China on the east coast. They are endangered, however, population estimates taken over the past decade show that 400-500 remained steady.
  • South China tigers live in south-central China, and are commonly recognized as the most endangered tigers in the world. The Chinese government now gives them the same status as the Panda, and is actively pursuing a conservation program. Population estimates are difficult to establish. There may be a couple of dozen or so living in the wild and another sixty or so in zoos.

why do tigers have stripes?

No one knows why tigers have stripes, scientists think that the stripes act as camouflage,and help tigers hide from their prey while they hunt. tigers stripes are like human fingerprints;no two tigers have the same pattern of stripes.Most tigers have an orange coat with dark brown or black stripes accented with white.
