The tiger is the largest cat in the world, and it is endangered. Only a few tigers remain in the wild, and these are located mostly in Russia's far east, northeastern India, and part of Indonesia. There are now more tigers in captivity than in the wild. Wearing beautiful stripes that provide them with camouflage, tigers are amazing and efficient hunters. Solitary creatures, they roam and jealously protect their territory, and they will attack humans when facing aggression or starvation. 

This short book features fifty interesting pieces of information that fans of tigers will love! Each page is illustrated and includes pertinent information divided in chapters dealing with such topics as tiger behavior, habitat and hunting, and tiger biology.
