Best Answer

Tigers are pure carnivores. They prefer hunting large ungulates such as chital, sambar, gaur, and to a small extent also barasingha, water buffalo, nilgai, serow and takin. Among the medium-sized prey species they frequently kill wild boar, and occasionally hog deer, muntjac and Gray langur. Small prey species such as porcupines, hares and peafowl are also hunted and form a very small part in their diet. Sometimes, they also prey on domestic livestock too that wander off into the jungles

They stay hidden and move near the unsuspecting prey. Once they are near enough, they pounce and take the prey down. They go for the throat and strangulate their prey.

Tigers are not omnivorous, only carnivorous. This means that they don't eat plants and animals, just animals. A tiger's main diet consists of deer, young buffalo calves and occasionally a young elephant calf too if it strays far away from the herd.

Some of the pray that tigers eat are antelope, Deer, Boars, Yak, Hares, Monkeys and wild dogs. They do eat baby elephants and rhinos but very rarely. In some domesticated areas they sometimes pray on horses, cows and donkeys. Older tigers are usually the ones who become man eaters as they are not fast enough to catch some of the animals.

Nothing kills tigers other than people and other tigers, but vultures might eat on an already dead tiger.

Yes, they do. Tigers are meat eaters, they get their energy from eating other animals (their pray.)
