The gestation period for Tigers is 16 weeks. The litter size usually consists of around 3 to 4 cubs. Cubs weigh approximately 1 kilogram (2.2 lb) each, which are born blind and helpless. The females rear them alone, sheltering them in dens such as thickets and rocky crevices. The father of the cubs generally takes no part in rearing them.
