Did you know ..

Here is just a bit of facts that i bet you did not know about me :) 

You can hear a tiger roar over a mile away! 


A tiger can eat 100 pounds of meat a night! Compare that to 400 hamburgers! They need a lot of food because they go days between meals. 


Tigers have been called man eaters, yet they eat frogs, monkeys, porcupines  fowl, and tortoises, especially  when a good deer is hard to find. 


Tigers have round pupils and yellow irises (except for the blue eyes of white tigers). Due to a retinal adaptation that reflects light back to the retina, the night vision of tigers is six times better than that of humans.


The size of a tiger's territory depends on the amount of food available, and usually ranges from about 10 to 30 square miles (26-78 sq. km). Siberian tigers sometimes have really big territories (as large as 120 square miles). 

  Although tigers usually live alone, tiger territories can overlap. A male tiger's territory usually overlaps those of several female tigers. 

Tigers can see in the dark six times better than humans can. They can also see in color.


The heaviest tiger recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records is a 1,025-pound male Siberian tiger.
