Tigers are carnivores, so they usually eat meat. Depending on the native locale, this can include antelope, deer, boars, and yaks, as well as smaller prey such as hares, monkeys, and wild dogs. Rarely, very young elephants and rhinos will also become prey. Tigers are not scavengers, and will eat only what they can kill in the wild.

In areas where domesticated animals live, tigers will also attack cows, horses, and donkeys. It is usually only older, slower tigers that become man-eaters.
