No, the eyes of tigers do not glow in the dark, but they will reflect light which may make them appear to be glowing. Additional Info: A tiger's eye must be able to function in daylight, well, in low light and in nocturnal conditions as well. In darkness, the tiger's vision can function with about one-sixth of the light that a human needs. The tiger's slit eyes is caused by muscles designed to open the eye as wide as possible to let in all avaiable light, and close it very narrow to protect the retina from direct sunlight. Their lens is curved more than a humans to make the vision clearer at the edges, and the size of the actual eye is bigger to again allow in all possible light. Lastly they have what is called a tapetum lucidum. This helps increase the amount of light hitting the retina, and is placed at the back of the eye, behind the retina. It acts as a mirror to relfect any light back to the light sensor cells of the retina, and this gives the tiger's eyes the glowing effect when caught in a beam of light at night. But they don't glow on their own, they need the light beam, or flash in the night.
