Paper On Siberian Tigers

Tigers are amazing creatures that have gone through several evolutionary changes from the beginning of their species. A modern day tiger is most recognizable for their pattern of dark vertical stripes on orange fur with a white underside. The largest modern day tiger in record was eleven feet tall and weighed 387 pounds. In the terms of science tigers are under the classification of roaring tigers and the scientific name of a tiger is Panthera tigris. But in order to learn about about the evolutionary changes of the tigers of today; it is important to look at the the core definition of evolution itself and the history of the adaptations that lead to the modern tiger. The adaptation of various ancestors shaped the outcome

To understand an animal more, you must first understand the history behind it. The evolution of Siberian tigers started when a fossil of Siberian tigers were found in China. It was two million years old. Even though the animals have different features that make them appear different, they are very much alike internally, including that in the distant past they had a common ancestor. For example, all tigers have characteristics such as; strip patterns,large paws, long claw, whiskers,sharp teeth, long tail, and strong hind legs. The tiger species may have common characteristics, but their

Many years ago, long before humans were around, animals roamed Africa. There were tigers, lions, bears, elephants, spiders, and so on and so on. The tigers were the kings of Africa and did whatever they wanted wherever they wanted. Their leader was Indi and he told all the tigers what to do and how to act. All other animals envied the big cats for their beautiful orange fur and long envious tails. Siberias, god of life, favored them over all other creatures that she created. They were one of the strongest and most agile creatures she had created and she loved them as her own. The one thing she wishes was different was that they were not as self centered and rude. Indi and his streak got away with too many things and they did not like to listen. Indi believed that rules did not apply to tigers.

Amur Leopards live in Far Eastern Russia and Northern China, experiencing harsh cold winters and hot summers. Their fur can grow long and pale which helps keep them warm and camouflages them in the snow. They also have long legs which adds them in running through the deep snow. In the wild, they can

The species Panthera tigris, also known as tigers, have reddish-orange fur with black stripes. Unique characteristics of the tiger include scratching trees and using their urine to mark their territories. Their urine smells strongly of buttered popcorn. Like human fingerprints, the stripes on each tiger are unique. Tigers are completely blind for the first week of their life. Due to this, about half do not survive to adulthood. Tigers cannot purr. Therefore, to show happiness, tigers squint or close their eyes. This is because losing vision lowers their defense, so tigers only purposefully do so when they feel comfortable and safe. Tigers are part of the Animalia kingdom because all members are multicellular and are heterotrophs that depend

They are very small in size compared to other tigers, as they weigh only about 170 pounds to 330 pounds. Because Sumatran tigers are so small, they are able to move through denser areas of forests to catch their prey. Some experts believe the reason they’re so small is because of limited space in their natural habitat. Their tiny size also comes the size of their prey, which is smaller than most other species of tigers, like wild boars compared to water buffalo. They are mostly orange in color, but they have white on their underside and black stripes. The stripes on a Sumatran tiger are packed closer together than other tiger species. These close stripes help Sumatran tiger blend in with the tall grass around them. They have a lot of fur around their necks, too. Sumatran tigers have webbing between their toes, which helps them swim easily through

The South China Tiger is a subspecies that hasn’t been seen in the wild for twenty years. They enjoy dense jungles and water where they live. In the mid 20th century they were considered pests by the Chinese government and hunted. To help save them we could find them, bring them to a different

The South China Tiger has more than one name, not counting the scientific name: Xiamen and the Amoy Tiger. The scientific name for the South China Tiger is Panthera Tigris Amoyensis. It can be found in the long grassy areas of China. The number of the population is unknown but scientists believe there’s about 20-30 left in the wild and 60 or less kept in captivity. It’s extremely rare to find one in the wild. They eat meat from large animals such as deer, wild boars, etc. They produce 4-5 cubs, it takes about 4 months until they can have the cub or cubs. Their only predator is humans and poachers.

I’m choosing to do my essay on bengal tigers. Tigers use respond to their environment by migrating for food. Tigers have special ligaments in there skull to help with vision. There scientific name is Panthera tigris. Adult male Bengal tigers weigh about 480 lbs and measure about 9.5 ft in length. Females are slightly smaller with an average weight of 300 lb and 8 ft in length.The hind legs of the tiger are longer than their front legs and this helps them to leap for their prey from long distances. The have sexual reproduction and usually have 3 to 4 cubs per litter. Tigers have fewer teeth than dogs or other cats. Dogs only have 42 teeth, only have 30 teeth. A tiger's tail is 3 ft in length. Tigers use their stout tails for balance when making

One of the world’s most beautiful creatures, the Siberian tiger, has been roaming earth for many years. The Siberian tiger subspecies has been subjected to many obstacles, which make it very difficult for it to survive. Their main threat is not lack of food, but “man,” one of God’s most fierce and cruel species. Because of man the tiger population has reduced to approximately 400 in the wild, and restricted their remaining habitat to the Russian Far East (Field Projects). Man has done many things to destroy the Russian Siberian tiger. They have cut down forests and moved in on the tiger’s territory, causing them to flee and become fragmented throughout Siberia making it hard for

Tigers are astonishing creatures. Male Siberian tigers can weigh up to 700 pounds! How can they catch their prey? Tigers may be very large, but they are remarkably strong and ferocious. Siberian tigers live alone, not in groups. This way it is easier to startle their prey, as with a large group it would be quite hard. Siberian tigers stalk their prey, and once they are close enough they pounce, hoping it will be a success. Siberian tigers are often not successful, so it frequently takes many tries before striking their victim. Tigers have amazing patterns of fur, but each tiger has a unique pattern of its own. This coloration that tigers have helps them camouflage. This comes to their aid, when hiding behind bushes while stalking their prey. They have long canine teeth, which are bigger than any other carnivores in the world. Their long teeth allow them kill their victim in a single bite. Siberian tigers eat almost all animals in their region. They eat goral, moose, deer, grizzly bears, salmon, rabbits and much more. Siberian tigers can devour almost 100 pounds of meat in one sitting. When Siberian tigers

Tigers also have long bodies. A male’s body length is from 8.2ft to 13ft. Females can be as long as 6.6 to 9ft. They can live from 20 to 26 years. Tigers can have two to four cubs every two years. Also according to the WWF “On average, tigers give birth to two to four cubs every two years. If all the cubs in one litter die, a second litter may be produced within five months.” (WWF,2017) . Tigers are known as one of the largest cats in the world. Also they are orange with black stripes, kind of like a zebra, but a zebra is white. No two tigers will have the same number of markings on their coats. Since, a tiger is a large cat, they will need to eat a lot of meat.

They are wild, strong and frightening, because they are tigers. It is in their nature to make you respect them and feel obedient in front of them. But, at the time they are small kittens, they are just too sweet to stay in the distance. Enjoy the cuteness in the following lines.

on is education. While their unskilled labour forces were getting more expensive and they thus had to outsource these activities to lower-waged countries, the population had to do something in order to maintain their high living standards. Due to these investments in especially higher technical education the Tiger economies now have a highly skilled labour force and they will continue to invest more into this.
