Today! we can go into Saga ride with Royal White Bengal Tiger.
White tigers in the wild live to be about 10 to 15 years while tigers in zoos usually live between 16 and 20 years. They are usually found in the hardwood forest of India. Tigers are normally lonely animals and they are never in social groups like lions except when they are caring for their young. They usually keep their young with them for 2 or 3 years until the young tigers can stand for themselves.
Tigers usually stay in an area from about 10 to 30 square miles where there is enough prey, cover/shelter and water to support them. Territory actually depends on the amount of prey that is available. The more concentrated the prey the smaller an area a tiger needs to survive.
Things to be Remembered: Tigers do not hunt in social groups like lions. They are generally solitary animals. In the wild, tigers will eat pig, cattle and deer. They can eat as much as 40 pounds of meat at one time! After such a big meal a tiger will not eat again for several days. White Tigers have 30 large teeth ranging from 2.5 to 3 inches.
Features of White Tiger: White tigers are born to Bengal tigers that carry an unusual gene needed for white coloring. The White Tiger is a good swimmer, but a very poor climber. They may be slow runners, but they are stealthy enough to catch any prey in their sights. Because they are solitary animals, they mostly hunt at night The other four sub-species of tiger are Siberian, South China, Indochinese, and Sumatran. There are only approximately 5,000 to 7,400 tigers left in the wild. It is belief that if you are born in the Chinese year of the tiger you are unusually lucky. Lets hope that some of this luck rubs off on the white tiger before it s too late.
At the beginning of this century it is estimated that there were 100,000 wild tigers, today the number is less than 8,000. Simply put, tigers are disappearing in the wild and the main threats to tigers are poaching, habitat loss and population fragmentation.
To wrap off, I have seen this amazing animal in the wild and would like to tell that it is the wonderful sight to watch the beautiful animal walking around the dense bushes with it unique colour of its skin which makes us thing that "if we cannot help this species then we have no right to kill it"... Especially for its beauty!!
