Indian White Bengal Tiger
Tigers
lead solitary lives, and the courtship period,
and association between mother and cub is their
only interaction and association. Tigers are
entirely different in their hunting habits from
lions, and hence they are mutually exclusive
in their distribution. Tigers rest during the
day in the shade, and begin to hunt for food
at dusk. They have keen eye sights and a sharp
hearing that helps them stalk their prey. Tiger
killings are split second affairs where the
prey hardly has any chance of survival. Its
formidable and retractile claws play a significant
role in capturing and holding on to its prey.
Tigresses are devoted mothers who are very protective
of their cubs. They look after their young till
they are about two and a half years old.
