The Bengal tiger (also known as the Royal Bengal tiger)
is a subspecies of tiger, found across the Indian subcontinent. The Bengal tiger is the national animal of Bangladesh
and is considered to be the second largest tiger in the world.
TheBengal tiger is the most numerous species of tiger in Asia and is found in dense forests and
mangrove swamps and jungles throughout India ,
Bangladesh , Bhutan
and Nepal ,
although the Bengal tiger's range today is much smaller than it
once was.
TheBengal tiger is considered to be the second largest
species of tiger, although recent
reports suggest that the Bengal tiger is on average, larger than the Siberian tiger. The Bengal tiger has a yellow or light orange coat with black or dark brown stripes and
a white belly.
The white tiger is aBengal tiger that has mutated genes, meaning that
it is white in color with black stripes.
Black tigers are known to have black fur with lighter colored stripes but are even rarer than the white tiger.
TheBengal tiger is a dominant and carnivorous predator,
hunting its prey by stalking it until the Bengal tiger has the opportunity to catch it off
guard. Bengal tigers primarily hunt larger mammals including deer, wild boar, cattle
and goats.
Due to the size and power of theBengal tiger, it has no natural predators in its native environment. Humans that hunt the Bengal tiger and habitat loss are the only threats to the Bengal
tiger.
After a gestation period of 3 to 4 months, the femaleBengal tiger gives birth to up to 5 cubs. Newborn Bengal tiger cubs weigh about 1 kg (2 lb) and are
blind and helpless. The mother feeds them milk for about 2 months and then the Bengal
tiger cubs are introduced to meat. Bengal tiger cubs depend on their mother for the
first 18 months and then they start hunting on their own.
Today, due to habitat loss caused by deforestation, and hunting by human poachers, theBengal tiger is considered to be an endangered
species.. Despite being the most
common of all the tiger species, there are thought to be
around 2,000 Bengal tigers left in the wild.
