Terrific Tigers

Today, the tiger lives mostly in dense jungles. It has adapted to that environment with its huge size, night vision, loud roar, and striped fur. If climate change makes that environment more desert-like, then tigers will have to adapt in ways like other big cats, such as the puma, lion, and cheetah, have adapted to desert life. These cats also use camouflage and nocturnal hunting, but are smaller than the tiger, less territorial, and usually live together in packs. The tiger may keep its stripes but will probably lose some weight and might become less vibrant in order to hide in the sand, roaming greater distances to find food and shelter Being smaller and traveling more will probably make them less territorial, and increase the need to hunt in packs. As desert cats, they would need to get faster in order to hunt smaller prey.
