The Bengal tiger is the largest predatory cat in the world. From its nose to the end of its tail, it can measure up to 3 meters in length.

Tiger stripes are as different and unique as fingerprints. Even the skin underneath bears the scratches. At first glance, this extravagant pattern does not seem to be able to be advantageous. Indeed, the tiger does not want to be discovered by its prey right away. But when the tiger goes hunting at dawn or dusk, its stripes camouflage it perfectly. They take on the appearance of tall grass or ephemeral shadow. Unlike many other "cats" and felines, the tiger likes to bathe and is a good swimmer. Thus, for many prey, water is not a safe haven.

Fun detail: Baby tigers come into the world with blue eyes.
