Research Paper On Sumatran 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

Tigers are a fascinating, and endangered, animal. They develop fast, and go off on their own when they’re mature. Tigers live in various climates, and eat various things as well. They are very strong, and have amazing energy. Not only are they magnificent to watch, but there are many interesting, and not well known, facts about them.

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

The Bornean Orangutan lives on the island of Borneo, a part of Malaysia and an Indonesian province. The Sumatran Orangutan lives on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia. They can be found in the heavily canopied rain forests, low elevation forests, and sometimes in grasslands . Due to their surroundings, the diet of the Orangutan consists of over 500 plant species, with fruits being the primary staple food but they also eat leaves, bark, insects and flowers. The results of this diet mean that they are one of the main distributors of seeds throughout the forest, creating the cycle of growth to maintain their food source. In their environments orangutans are not known to form large communities, but small groups with specific

Today, contiguous distributions can be found throughout southern Asia, far east Russia, and the Sunda islands of Sumatra, and Java (figure 1). It is widely agreed that the evolutionary history and distribution of tigers and other fauna endemic to Asia is largely dominated by glacial cycles during the late Pleistocene epoch. An examination of environmental conditions during the late Pleistocene would assist in explaining the current distribution and the central point of origin of the species

Curtis the leader of the peewee tiger brought in his top general Felipe to discuss how they are going to convince the citizens to support this war. SO they can fight back the anti-government movement form their bigotry and lies. These lies are telling the citizens this war is only to steal the fluffy bear's oil. These citizens and their support don't understand this terrorist threat. This is the biggest threat in our country's history and this threat need to be ended right now.

Known for being arboreal and endemic to the island of Sumatra, Indonesia, these primates is considered to be regenerators of Rainforests and contributes to biodiversity. Enlisted critically endangered by the National Primate Research Center, Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii) and its Bornean relative (pongo pygmaeus) are nearing closely to being extinct. Looking closely at the evidence provided on Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii), and on Willie Smits motivation to help these creatures, I would attempt to identify 5 extinction prone factors that lead to the small population of Orangutan and the effectiveness of the interventions done by Mr. Smits.

Wests Tigers had to fight for their win over Newcastle, coming from 10 points behind midway through the second half to wrap up a 30-28 victory at Hunter Stadium.

Sabretooth Tigers are interesting animals they are carnivores and a theory that they went extinct in the tar pits along with Canis Lupis while hunting prey. A Sabretooth Tiger is in the family of the cats most closely related to lions and tigers. They are particularly known for their distinctive long teeth that were perfect for piecing flesh and cutting the most arteries. The Sabretooth tiger was one of the most known megafauna’ mammals of the Pleistocene epoch. (Staff)

Orangutans are only found in rainforests. In addition to that orangutans spend 90% of their time in the trees of the tropical rainforest. One rainforest orangutans live in is the Borneo rainforest. Another rainforest orangutans live in is the Sumatra rainforest. Orangutans are smart enough to use large leaves as umbrellas and shelter to protect themselves from the common rain. Did you know orangutans are the only great apes native to Africa. Finally, orangutans are very creative and build nests out of branches.

On Friday, Oct. 2, the women’s soccer hosted their first home Gulf South Conference match against Union University. Although UU has lost their first six matches, they came out 2-0 in GSC recently, and their confidence is high. However, the Tigers are confident and are determined to outwork the Bulldogs, and look to remain undefeated at home.

Have you ever heard of a siberian tiger? Many people say that they are scary creatures that can eat you, but that’s not the case. If you come close to them they might think you are trying to take over their territory, or if it is a female with babies it might think that you are trying to take away their children. Siberian tigers want to live happy lives like any average human would. Walking into a tiger’s territory is like a random stranger walking in your house and staring at you, continued by taking pictures then leaving like nothing ever happened. Would you want that? Siberian tigers are endangered and we need to help them before they become extinct.

The supplies that they can create is by no means an equal trade out for the extinction of the entire species. Just look at the albino rhino, there is only one male left in the entire world, it can no longer reproduce. Meaning that the species is extinct. It is such a sad thing. I know that I do not want the Chinese tiger to become like the albino rhino. I believe that these tigers should be put in captivity for the time being until their numbers reach about 150, then we should release a little at a time back into to the wild to get the ecosystem back to the way it was without endangering yet another species. So I ask you to help, with something, anything. Call up an organization, raise funds near you, something, just do something to save this species. I hope that the facts and statistics that you have read will make you passionate enough to

As a result, in 1982 the Siberian tiger Protection Project was started. Sanctuaries have been set up and they are trying to reduce deforestation. Now there are laws against poaching. Unfortunately, people continue to hunt tigers and the tiger population continues to be very small.

They live mostly in the range from tropical forest to mangrove swamps. White tigers are carnivores and, in the wild, they often feed on large mammals, such as wild boar, buffalo and deer. Depending upon what is available in a particular area, white tigers may
