Tigers normally live as forest dwellers. Tigers are native to
Asia. They range from the Caucasus and the Caspian Sea to Siberia
in the north, Indonesia, and even in Borneo and the Philippines in
the south. Due to their amazing adaptation abilities they live in
many diverse regions, such as: tropical rain forests, evergreen
forests, mangrove swamps, grasslands, savannas, and many other
forests. Decline in tigers land.
Slide 4
Those places are not widely populated by tigers though, and
heres why. Tigers need three things to survive: dense cover, large
water sources, and decent game. And if you want them to thrive;
large spaces for territory. Tigers live in varying environments.
They go from flowing grasslands, exceptionally damp swamps, shaded
forests, varying savannas, and even snowy mountains.
Slide 5
Tigers feeding habits generally depend on where they live. They
eat small prey as well as large. Their amazing anatomy with
powerful jaws and legs allow them to take down massive prey such as
buffalo and even bears. But these extraordinary animals cannot even
match our intelligence or supremacy in weapons. Therefore, we are
actually the tigers worst fear and most dangerous predator. The
reason for our hunting can be the tigers amazing hide or other
parts of their body. And for whatever the reason, we have greatly
endangered them. Pure evil.

The tiger has many talents, to name a few are its incredible
night vision (which is six times better than ours), its great
adaptation skills, its 40 mph speed (which is possible with its
long springy hind legs) and one of its greatest weapons: its roar.
You wont often hear a tiger roar, and thats because they mostly use
stealth. But if it does decide to roar, it will emit a sound of
huge magnitude. The sound is actually loud enough to paralyze its
prey, even if its a human. Their roar is so loud that it can be
heard from up to two miles away! But sheer volume does not create
the paralyzing feature. They also emit a sound that humans cant
hear, which is called infrasound.
Slide 8
The infrasound pitch is below 20 Hz, which is why we cant hear
it. It can permeate through anything: buildings, bodies, mountains,
you name it. The tiger will use its incredible roar only when
needed, such as if its prey is direly needed, but it cant catch it.
Their massive roars also are most commonly used for territorial
purposes as well, especially in an attack to stop opposing tigers.
And if it is in a desperate situation, the tiger will even roar in
an attempt to subdue a threat. Even if its a human.
Slide 9
Now Im not going to try and convince you that tigers are cuddly
creatures that would make perfect pets, because they wouldn't. Dont
go thinking that they will go and maul your face off as soon as
they see you, but they wont make good pets all the same. But tigers
are amazing animals, and the next generation may never see their
likes on earth ever again if we stay the way we are. There are
currently an estimated 7,500 tigers left in the world. And unless
something is done about it, their roar may never sound again.
