Usually not, but it can happen.

Most rhinos live in Africa, where there aren't any tigers.

But there are places in Asia that has both rhinos and tigers.

Still doesn't make Rhinos a regular meal for tigers though.

An adult, healthy rhino is too big and strong for a tiger to take on. It'll try for an easier meal instead.

But a tiger might kill a rhino calf that's gotten separated from its mother, or possibly even a sick and weak adult.

No. Hippos are more dangerous than any tiger will be, and if a tiger gets too close to a hippo's jaws he's pretty much finished. Hippos are very large, very heavy and have thick, tough skin which make them impossible for a tiger to prey on.

No. Tigers can eat 80 pounds at one time, but hippos weigh two tons or more. Besides, tigers do not live in Africa.
