Male Sumatran tigers play a crucial role in protecting their cubs and tigresses by defending their territory from intruders and rival males. They use vocalizations, scent markings, and physical displays to assert dominance and deter threats. Additionally, a male may help to provide food for the tigress and cubs, ensuring their survival and strengthening the bond within the family unit. This protective behavior is vital for the cubs' development and the overall success of the family.
