Tigers are the largest natural species of cat in the world, and are native to Asia. The characteristic orange and black stripes are unique to each tiger and the beauty and majesty of this animal has been depicted in pictures and stories from many different cultures throughout history. Tigers are critically endangered as they are sold as pets illegally, hunted for sport and used in Chinese medicine.

What do tigers eat when their hungry?
In the wild, tigers mostly feed on larger and medium sized animals. Sambar, gaur, chital, barasingha, wild boar, nilgai and both water buffalo and domestic buffalo are the tiger's favoured prey in India. Sometimes, they also prey on leopards, pythons, sloth bears and crocodiles. In Siberia the main prey species are manchurian wapiti, wild boar, sika deer, moose, roe deer, and musk deer. In Sumatra Sambar, muntjac, wild boar, and malayan tapir are preyed on. In the former Caspian tiger's range, prey included saiga antelope, camels, caucasian wisent, yak, and wild horses. Like many predators, they are opportunistic and will eat much smaller prey, such as monkeys, peafowls, hares, and fish.
Adult elephants are too large to serve as common prey, but conflicts between tigers and elephants do sometimes take place. A case where a tiger killed an adult Indian Rhinoceros has been observed.[57] Young elephant and rhino calves are occasionally taken. Tigers also sometimes prey on domestic animals such as dogs, cows, horses, and donkeys. These individuals are termed cattle-lifters or cattle-killers in contrast to typical game-killers.[58]
Old tigers, or those wounded and rendered incapable of catching their natural prey, have turned into man-eaters; this pattern has recurred frequently across India. An exceptional case is that of the Sundarbans, where healthy tigers prey upon fishermen and villagers in search of forest produce, humans thereby forming a minor part of the tiger's diet.[59] Tigers will occasionally eat vegetation for dietary fiber, the fruit of the Slow Match Tree being favoured.[58] Tigers' extremely strong jaws and sharp teeth make them superb predators.
Tigers usually hunt at night.[60] They generally hunt alone and ambush their prey as most other cats do, overpowering them from any angle, using their body size and strength to knock large prey off balance. Even with their great masses, tigers can reach speeds of about 49-65 kilometres per hour (35-40 miles per hour), although they can only do so in short bursts, since they have relatively little stamina; consequently, tigers must be relatively close to their prey before they break their cover. Tigers have great leaping ability; horizontal leaps of up to 10 metres have been reported, although leaps of around half this amount are more typical. However, only one in twenty hunts ends in a successful kill.[60]
When hunting large prey, tigers prefer to bite the throat and use their forelimbs to hold onto the prey, bringing it to the ground. The tiger remains latched onto the neck until its prey dies of strangulation.[61] By this method, gaurs and water buffalos weighing over a ton have been killed by tigers weighing about a sixth as much.[62] With small prey, the tiger bites the nape, often breaking the spinal cord, piercing the windpipe, or severing the jugular vein or common carotid artery.[63] Though rarely observed, some tigers have been recorded to kill prey by swiping with their paws, which are powerful enough to smash the skulls of domestic cattle,[58] and break the backs of sloth bears.[64]
During the 1980s, a tiger named "Genghis" in Ranthambhore National Park was observed frequently hunting prey through deep lake water,[65] a pattern of behaviour that had not been previously witnessed in over 200 years of observations. Moreover, he appeared to be extraordinarily successful for a tiger, with as many as 20% of hunts ending in a kill.
How can people help protect tigers?
Tigers are threatened by deforestation and poaching. To protect them from deforestation, it is important to avoid purchasing wood products, especially rainforest woods, and paper products that do not have the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) symbol on them (because if they don't have the symbol, the odds are that the wood was NOT sustainably harvested, and contributed to deforestation). Also, don't buy products that contain palm oil, because palm oil plantations are one of the major causes of deforestation in Southeast Asia, where many tigers live. To protect them from poaching, donate, if you can, to an organization such as the World Wildlife Fund, that actively searches for poachers in tigers' native habitats.
Does a lama live in the jungle?
there are no llamas living in the jungle, they live in the Andes mountains in South America.
Tigers are the biggest big cats, and are very endangered because the number of people who illegally hunt them for their rare, beautiful, expensive fur, people who kill them because they killed their cattle, or because of humans that are destroying their habitat by tearing down trees. There are many different kinds of tigers, which live in Asia or Europe. They have red or orange fur with black stripes. The biggest kind of tiger is the Siberian tiger, which can stand at 4.5 ft at the shoulder at maximum height. They hunt deer and elk, sometimes birds and even humans. They stalk their prey and use ambush to hunt, even though the powerful creature can run to 38 mph even for its bulk. And it will even swim to cool off. They don't mate for life, and will mate lots of times with several different males in its life time. They usually have two to four cubs, and the cubs leave to find territories of their own as soon as they learn to hunt. males have vast territories, driving intruders out and sometimes fighting for a territory mate with other males. Tigers can even be white, although it is extremely rare.

Why did humans cause extinction to woolly mammoths?
honestly it was more of the humans fault for their extinxion because they killed the mammaths for food and fur. the weather did effect them because they had long heavy coats that would make them overheated, and the weather created muddy swamps and such so mammaths often got stuck in them.

How do tigers have lots of energy?
From exactly the same place as every other animal on Earth; namely the energy released from the breaking down of the adenosine tri-phosphate molecule into adenosine di-phosphate
Tigers are most definitely carnivores - even to the point that there really are man-eating tigers. Most other animals that acquire the reputation don't really deserve it, but tigers have been known to not only kill and eat humans when presented with an opportunity, but to stalk them as prey. Fortunately their main diet is not people but rather other animals in the jungles, forests, grasslands, swamps, and mountains that they inhabit. Most man-eating tigers are old and missing teeth, acquiring a taste for humans because of their inability to capture preferred prey.
Tigers mostly feed on larger and medium sized animals such as Asian species of deer, wild boar, and water buffalo in their habitat in India. Sometimes, they also prey on leopards, pythons, sloth bears and crocodiles. Further north their diet is more along the lines of Asian elk, wild boar, deer, and moose. Further south and east they eat the mid-sized animals indigenous to the Southeast Asian forests like wild boar, forest deer, and tapir. When tigers lived in the Caspian area, they preyed on antelope, camels, Caucasian wisent (a big animal that looked a lot like an American bison), yak, and wild horses. Although they usually go for the bigger animals (they are the biggest of the big cats of our time so they need a lot of food) they are opportunistic and will eat much smaller prey, such as monkeys, peafowl, hares, and fish. Occasionally they will also go for bigger prey like young elephant and rhino calves. Obviously they will also eat domestic animals such as dogs, pigs, sheep, cows, horses, and donkeys when they are available.

Why is night vision an adaptation for owls in a desert environment?
All owls have night vision. Since the desert can get so hot, most animals, including owls, come out at evening or night to avoid the heat of day. Since they're active at night, it's good to have nocturnal vision.
Some desert owls are elf owls, pygmy owls, burrowing owls, great horned owls.
It allows them to hunt when it is cooler.
