Tiger Sounds

The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest living cat species and belongs to the genus Panthera. It is most famous for its dark vertical stripes on its orange fur with a white underside. An apex predator, it primarily preys on ungulates such as deer and wild boars. It is territorial and solitary but a social predator, and requires large, contiguous areas of habitat, which support the requirements of prey and the rearing of its offspring. Tiger cubs stay with their mother for about two years, then become independent and leave their mother's home group to establish their home.
