Tigers is an outstanding collection of photographs showing these
fearsome yet magnificent animals in action. Tigers are the largest
big cats in the world and because of this, many cultures consider
the tiger to be a symbol of strength, courage and dignity. They are
featured in ancient mythology and folklore and continue to be
depicted in modern films and literature. You’ll discover how
tigers are adapted for hunting: A tiger’s paws and claws are one
of its greatest weapons during the hunt. Strong, and powerful
enough to kill prey with a swipe, the bones in their paws also have
cord-like ligaments to buffer them from the impact of hitting prey
at a full run. You’ll also learn many other fascinating facts,
such as how each tiger is unique – did you know that no two
tigers have the same pattern of stripes? Or that you can tell a
tiger’s age by its nose? Young tigers have a pink nose which
gradually darkens, turning orange, then a blackish-brown as it
reaches maturity. With full captions explaining how these
incredible animals hunt and feed, rear their young and survive in
the wild, Tigers is a brilliant examination in 150 outstanding
colour photographs of this beautiful animal.
