Most big cats are not very social. While female lions often form groups and hunt together, this is not a common practice among other species, including tigers. Tiger cubs remain with their mother for about two years, after which they may naturally disperse or be driven away by the mother. Female offspring may remain with the mother longer than the males, who take to wandering upon reaching maturity (at about age two). A tigress may bear as many as six cubs, though two to four are more common. While raising her cubs, a female is unlikely to allow an adult male near her territory, as mature males may kill the cubs to bring the mother back into season. Tiger territory forms shifting boundaries held by mothers, which often overlap with territory held by males, which are wanderers. As long as tigers or groups of tigers do not get too close to each other when crossing territory, they are somewhat peaceable. They are not, however, friendly enough with each other to be called social (beyond the family).

No. Tigers do not typically live in permanent groups and socialize infrequently with one another, usually only at mating times and while raising cubs.

To communicate, tigers have a loud roar to interact with other species. Its roar can be heard till 3km.
