Wild Africa consists of savanna, deserts and the tropics. Tigers' natural habitat would be the rain forest regions such as you find in south-east Asia. Some larger species of tigers also dwell in the cold regions of eastern Russia and they are called Siberian tigers. The big cats you may find in Africa include lions, cheetahs, leopards, panthers, etc. Tiger re-wilding projects are underway in southern Africa, where zoo born tigers are being taught the hunting skills they will need to survive in the wild. The Chinese and Bengal tigers are the involved species. Also, in reference to above answer, panthers are the same as leopards, as far as a species goes. Panther is a term used for leopards, pumas, and jaguars.
