Tiger is known to have fascinated wildlife lovers & conservationists for multiple reasons. The fact that this mighty cat has been given the status of national animal, explains our love for the specie. Here we are making an attempt to describe the beautiful creature through a poetic description of the tiger.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The day has dawned in Kanha meadows,
 A roar of the royal rises from the shadows.
 From where she is, to where she would go,
 Kanha is the Tigress\u2019 jungle we know!<\/em><\/p>\n

Firm in her walk, she sniffs the breeze 
and crouches in the grassland to ambush one deer at ease
She waits for the deer to dawdle close,
as she pounced, the herd ran in chaos!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s in her catch is dragged into the deep woods
 for a peaceful meal in secluse.
 Never would she waste any meal, 
 even though she is the jungle queen!<\/p>\n

She then strolled down to the taal,
Finally, revealing her stripes to the human audience.
Lounging under the Mahua shade,
She gazed at the sky and took a yawn.<\/p>\n<\/em>

The langurs are now unassumingly quiet,
and the deer will soon return to graze.
The mighty Tigress winks at me with her big, sleepy eyes
 and then swiftly rolls to the other side.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The tiger<\/strong> (Panthera tigris<\/strong><\/em>) is the largest living cat species and a member of the genus Panthera<\/em> native to Asia. It has a powerful, muscular body with a large head and paws, a long tail, and distinctive black, mostly vertical stripes on orange fur. It was first scientifically described in 1758 and is traditionally classified into eight recent subspecies, though some recognize only two subspecies, namely mainland Asian tigers and island tigers of the Sunda Islands.  <\/p>\n

The tiger has been listed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List since 1986, as the global tiger population is thought to have continuously declined from an estimated population of 5,000\u20138,262 tigers in the late 1990s to 3,726\u20135,578 individuals estimated as of 2022 During 2001\u20132020, landscapes where tigers live declined from 1,025,488 km2<\/sup> (395,943 sq mi) to 911,901 km2<\/sup> (352,087 sq mi). Habitat destruction, habitat fragmentation , and poaching for fur and body parts are the major threats that contributed to the decrease of tiger populations in all range countries. <\/p>\n
