What is the difference between cougars and tigers?

Answer 1

First of all, their appearance is very different. The cougar has no stripes while tigers do. Cougars are ranging from reddish brown to dark grey while tigers range from a reddish orange to a white coat.

Second of all, cougars come from the Felidae family while tigers come from the Panthera family. Since they are from different families, the major difference between them is ability to roar. Felidae cats can't roar, so they instead make noises like purrs and hisses.

Lastly, their habitat is in different places. Cougars are usually found in North or South America while tigers are sighted on the corners of India.

Answer 2

The question as written makes no sense. Tigers are related to tigers by virtue of them being the same thing (Reflexive Principle). Lions and tigers, however, are more closely related to each other than either is to cougars.

Answer 3

No, cougars are found only in North and South America while tigers live in Asia. They would never meet in nature. If they did meet, the tiger is much larger and would make quick work of a cougar.
