Tigers

Three reasons why tigers are getting endangered are as follows: 1. Every second about hundreds of tigers are being hunted or shot. 2. They are hunted for their skin/fur, claw, teeth etc. 3. As many forests are being cleared, many tigers die every year without a place to live.

This story tells us about a woman's pleasure and intention to shoot a tiger. This short masterpiece is written by a very renowned author -- Saki. The story was written at a time when there was a very little awareness about the need to protect the tigers. The story deals with an important character named Mrs. Packeltide whose motive was to kill a tiger for her pleasure. This wasn't due to her lust to kill but it was created due to her close friend, Mrs. Loona Bimberton. Mrs. Loona Bimberton is another character in the story who has recently shot a tiger and the name and fame she has got due to it had a major impact on Mrs. Packeltide which made her think of shooting a tiger.

2. As the circumstances seemed favorable, she stared her journey to accomplish her motive. Mrs. Packeltide has offered a thousand rupees for the opportunity to shoot a tiger without any risk. The neighbouring village gets to know about the news and accepts the challenge as it had a large number of tigers in it. The precious amount of a thousand rupees had spread all over the village and the villagers which included women and children cloud be seen working of the challenge of grabbing this amount. As it happens, a very elderly tiger, who is no longer able to chase down it prey for supper, has taken to preying on the village's domesticated animals, and the villagers would like to get rid of him as much as Mrs. Packletide would like to bag him.

3. The day had arrived. It was moonlit and cloudless. The villagers had constructed a platform in a leafy tree for Mrs. Packletide, and tether a goat "with a particularly persistent bleat" underneath it was kept as a prey for the tiger. To accomplish this task more safely, Mrs. Packeltide had appointed a paid companion, Miss. Mebbin. Now, Mrs. Packletide, accompanied by her paid companion Louisa, waits through the night for the tiger to appear. At last the tiger is seen making his way into the clearing. Instead of attacking the terrified goat, however, the tiger lies down. "I believe it's ill," Louisa says, but the tiger rises again and heads for the goat. Mrs. Packletide fires, and the tiger falls.

4. In a moment, all the natives could be seen excited to see the seen as the tiger was dead. This glad news was carried to the whole village and the thumping of tom-toms could be heard to suit the scene.

5. But, the story takes a change when Miss. Mebbin finds out that the goat was shot and had a wound while no trace of a bullet or a wound could be found on the tiger. It was later found out that the wrong animal had been hit accidently. The tiger had died due to a heart attack as it was very old and could not bear the sudden bullet shot out of the rifle. Mrs. Packeltide was annoyed at this discovery but at the same time she was convinced that she had shot a tiger and accomplished her motive. The villagers will not give away Mrs. Packletide's secret for the thousand rupees. Mrs. Packletide assumes she can trust Louisa for the same reason.

6. The news then spreads as Mrs. Packeltide's as her picture frame reaches from the Texas Weekly Snapshot to the Novoe Vermaya. But Louisa, who seems to felt herself underpaid and underappreciated for some time, informs Mrs. Packletide that she'll require a little extra funding to insure that the story doesn't happen to leak out. Specifically, what Louisa needs is the money to buy a small cottage near Darking. People are very surprised when Louisa, a paid companion, suddenly becomes a homeowner; but they are even more surprised when Mrs. Packletide gives up her newfound hobby, big-game hunting. "The initial expenses are so heavy," she tells those who ask the reason for why she gave up big-game shooting. This is how the story ends.

Because we have certain traits that allow us to adapt and modify parts of the environment to increased are chances of survival.

Tigers are carnivorous predators that can easily attack or kill humans. No country in the world allows people to have such dangerous animals as pets. USA too doesn't allow keeping such animals as pets. Doing so is illegal and you can be jailed for doing so.

Tigers do not hibernate or migrate.

The temperature of water inside the well or under the soil tends to remain in its normal temperature but the external temperature of the earth gets changes according to which the temperature of our body also changes. So, in winter season the external temperature is cold to which our body response to be cold. The normal temperature of the earth's surface water becomes more in comparison to the human body. So the human sensory organ just give the sense of hot to body when we touch it. For any kind of help contact me . Name: Sabin Shrestha Address: bank road, Sindhuli, Nepal.

Deforestation is only one factor that affects the tigers. Another is illegal trade of tiger body parts, as well as the domestication which occurs mainly in America.

No, cheetahs do not eat tigers. Cheetahs primarily hunt and feed on smaller prey such as antelope, gazelles, and hares. Tigers are much larger and more powerful predators that would not be prey for cheetahs.
