Yes, a Bengal tigers' claws retract. All cats claws do, large (panthera) or small (felis), except for the cheetah. While in the cat family (Felidae) the cheetah actually has it's own genus/species (acinonyx jubatus) and it the only "cat" that does not retract its claws, giving it extra traction for greater speed.
