It is so that tigers can trace their prey silently without being heard as their padded feet help them to reduce noise of their footsteps. Thus it helps them to creep silently on their prey and hopefully give them a surprise.

The thick padding on the paws of tigers give them an advantage in hunting because the pads cushion the sound when they are stalking prey.

Tigers paws are so big because they in fact, are big. They need their paws to run and to hunt. They are proportional to the rest of their bodies.

Can tiger swim?

Yes, tigers swim very well and quite a lot too. They use swimming to cool off. Most tigers absolutely love water as it's great fun for them, as well as it cooling them off. Cats and lions do not like it but tigers and cheetahs do. They do the "doggy paddle" as they swim. Bengal tigers have webbing in their feet and have been known to swim over 15 miles.its odd because we think cats hate to swim but some cats love to swim and do it often. ps. if you like tigers help them to live and stop being indangerd please help the tigers from being extinced help all animals and your reward will be all the pride you can have
