No. Like all cats, they tear off small pieces and cut them with their teeth before swallowing. But cats do not have grinding teeth, so the food is in chunks.

They don't actually GET the food. They hunt to get the food. They used their fangs or claws to eat them. The tiger run after the animal that the tiger wants to eat, then the tiger bites or scratch the animal. Also, tiger is a carnivore ( Carnivore is an animal who eats meat ONLY) so they don't eat vegetables. But they drink, too.
by hunting other herbivores animals

No. Tigers are obligate carnivores, (meat-eaters).
No, they are carnivores not omnivores, omnivores eat meat and plants a mixture of a carnivore and a herbivore.
