Best Answer

The Caspian Tiger will usually eat whatever it can get. The larger ingulates formed the bulk of the diet. They could have also fed on livestock or attack wounded tigers, especially when prey was depleted.

The Caspian tiger fed on deer, wild boar, camels, and livestock like sheep and goats on occasion. Like most cats, it fed on pretty much what was available.
