tiger

The tiger (Panthera tigris) is a member of the Felidae family and the largest and possibly most dangerous of the five "big cats".
Native to much of eastern and southern Asia, the Tiger is an apex predator and an obligate carnivore. Aside from their great bulk and power, their most recognisable feature is a pattern of dark vertical stripes that overlays near-white to reddish-orange fur, with lighter underparts.
