Tiger

The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest cat species, reaching a total body length of up to 3.38 m (11.1 ft) over curves and exceptionally weighing up to 388.7 kg (857 lb) in the wild. Its most recognisable feature is a pattern of dark vertical stripes on reddish-orange fur with a lighter underside. The species is classified in the genus Panthera with the lion, leopard, jaguar and snow leopard. Tigers are apex predators, primarily preying on ungulates such as deer and bovids. They are territorial and generally solitary but social animals, often requiring large contiguous areas of habitat that support their prey requirements. This, coupled with the fact that they are indigenous to some of the more densely populated places on Earth, has caused significant conflicts with humans.

Tigers once ranged widely across Asia, from Turkey in the west to the eastern coast of Russia. Over the past 100 years, they have lost 93% of their historic range, and have been extirpated from southwest and central Asia, from the islands of Java and Bali, and from large areas of Southeast and Eastern Asia. Today, they range from the Siberian taiga to open grasslands and tropical mangrove swamps. The remaining six tiger subspecies have been classified as endangered by IUCN. The global population in the wild is estimated to number between 3,062 and 3,948 individuals, down from around 100,000 at the start of the 20th century, with most remaining populations occurring in small pockets isolated from each other, of which about 2,000 exist on the Indian subcontinent. Major reasons for population decline include habitat destruction, habitat fragmentation and poaching. The extent of area occupied by tigers is estimated at less than 1,184,911 km² (457,497 sq mi), a 41% decline from the area estimated in the mid-1990s.

I know the coolest cat
She's living high on a mountain
Here she comes again
A pocket full of stories to be heard
She once married a wolf
I guess he's one in a million
Here she comes again
Her heart on the tongue
She's rollin like a stone
Cause I'm out to a point where I have to say
That the tiger's around and I love her ways
Yeah I'm out to a point where I have to say
That the tiger's a mess and it saved my days
I'm dancing with you baby
I'm dying when you cry
Angel's with you baby
But the dragon's on your side
You're the fire? (yeah)
Cause you were born to run with the wild
You're the fire
I love to run with the tiger
Cause you're the dragon's friend
And when they burn again
There's nothing in this world
They have to fear
You're the beauty rose?
Like I always told ya
And I'm feeling good
Cat is always landing on her paws
I gotta say it
You're always been my favorite girl
I gotta say it
You've always been my favorite girl
I'm dancing with you baby
I'm dying when you cry
Angel's with you baby
But the dragon's on your side
You're the fire? (yeah)
And you were born to run with the wild
You're the fire? (yeah)
And you were born to run with the wild
We're the fire? (yeah)
Cause we were born to run with the
Do it right, do it right, do it right
Baby
Do it right, do it right, do it right
