Bengal tigers live in India and are sometimes called Indian tigers. They are the most common tiger and number about half of all wild tigers. Over many centuries they have become an important part of Indian tradition and lore.

White Bengal tigers eyes are usually blue, but may be green or amber. There are several hundred captive White Bengal tigers worldwide (this number increases annually), all of whom can trace their ancestry back to 'Mohan', a White Bengal tiger caught in Rewa, India in 1951.

Harimau Jawa (Panthera tigris sondaica), yang ukuran tubuhnya berada di antara ukuran tubuh subjenis harimau Sumatera dan harimau Bali, bertahan sedikit lebih lama. Pada tahun 1850-an, harimau Jawa dianggap sebagai 'gangguan' dijavan tiger  beberapa daerah perkotaan dan pada tahun 1872 hadiah yang diberikan bagi sebuah kepala harimau yang terbunuh di Tegal, Jawa Tengah, adalah sekitar 3.000 gulden. Waktu itu ada beberapa lusin harimau dibunuh dalam usaha memperoleh hadiah tersebut.

All we are know that this animal is so dangerous. They are The TOP PREDATOR inside our ecosystem. But now they sow a legendary new enemy and the enemy is us. We can't eat tigers steak, but why we hunt them?.

Most cats do not like getting wet - as anyone who has tried to bathe a moggie will know. But as these pictures show, there's always the exception to the rule. For the cat in question is a large male white Bengal tiger called Odin.

Six years old, and at the prime of his life, Odin lives at the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Zoo in Vallejo, near San Francisco. He is about 10ft long from nose to tail, and is an excellent swimmer.

Odin was hand-raised at the zoo. And after he was weaned, his British trainer Lee Munro discovered his remarkable skill: when a lump of meat was thrown into a pool of water, Odin would happily dive in after it.

Harimau Sumatra atau dalam bahasa latin disebut Panthera tigris sumatrae merupakan satu dari lima subspisies harimau (Panthera tigris) di dunia yang masih bertahan hidup. Harimau Sumatera termasuk satwa langka yang juga merupakan satu-satunya sub-spisies harimau yang masih dipunyai Indonesia setelah dua saudaranya Harimau Bali (Panthera tigris balica) dan Harimau Jawa (Panthera tigris sondaica) dinyatakan punah.

Hewan dari filum Chordata ini hanya dapat diketemukan di Pulau Sumatera, Indonesia. Populasinya di alam liar diperkirakan tinggal 400–500 ekor. Harimau Sumatera (Panthera tigris sumatrae) semakin langka dan dikategorikan sebagai satwa yang terancam punah.

The Sumatran tiger occurs in about 58,321 km² of forested habitat in 12 potentially isolated Tiger. Conservation Landscapes totalling 88,351 km² (Sanderson et al. 2006), with about 37,000 km² protected in ten national parks (Govt of Indonesia 2007). The tiger population was estimated at 400-500 in the first and second national tiger action plans (Govt of Indonesia 1994, 2007a), and at 342-509 in six major protected areas (estimates from Shepherd and Magnus 2004). However, incorporating more recent research, covering most of tiger estimated habitat (Sanderson et al. 2006) suggests the population could be higher (see Table 1 in attached PDF).

There is no recent information from Berbak or Gunung Leuser, and both of these estimates are considered speculative. Completion of a research in the three Tiger Conservation Landscapes in Riau province by Sunarto et al. (2007) will improve efforts to assess the Sumatran tiger population.

KOMPAS.com - Perburuan harimau Sumatera (Phantera tigris sumatrae) terus berjalan. Dari 20 kota di delapan provinsi di Sumatera yang dipantau oleh TRAFFIC (sebuah organisasi non pemerintah yang aktif memantau perdagangan satwa liar), 13 di antaranya menjadi tempat lalu lintas perdagangan organ tubuh harimau. Satu-satunya tempat yang menjadi populasi terbesar harimau endemis di Sumatera itu hanya ada di Taman Nasional Gunung Leuser di Sumatera Utara dan Nanggore Aceh Darussalam (NAD).
