The tiger belongs to the genus Panthera, which includes three other big cats: the lion (Panthera leo), the leopard (Panthera pardus), and the jaguar (Panthera onca). These species share similar physical characteristics and behaviors, and they are all classified as part of the larger family Felidae. Each of these cats plays a significant role in their respective ecosystems.
