[@themessenger4208]

Oh Man, they are incredibly beautiful creatures...Now, I'm more familiar with Lions than I am with Tigers. But I will be interested to see how this family dynamic works. I'm sure it must be similar to the Lions, so far the protectiveness of the Mama introducing the cub to the Papa seems to be right on track. Let's wait and see what develops with this magnificent family and their gorgeous color pattern.🐅🐅🐅🤗👊🤜🤛👍💞💞💞

Sumatran tigers are one of The most active and agile among the tiger species due to being in thick jungle habitats. They are rarely seen in the wild. They are masters of stealth and ambush. Explosive powerful muscles and strength.

Actually male tigers do take care of their offspring in the wild. It happened in India with wild Royal Bengal Tigers in the past. A male Bengal Tiger called "Zalim" raised his daughters after their mother died. He infact used to expel other male tigers for his daughters safety which is a shocking revelation to the wild life experts. He even used to stay away from other female tigers fearing they might hurt his daughters. That much committed he was to his parenting. He used to teach them hunting & hunt on his own & shared his kills with his cubs when they were 3 months old. Those cubs used to follow their dad so cutely🥰 He raised them to their adulthood & one day forest officials transferred his daughters to other reserve thinking other male tigers would hurt them & for that Zalim had to be tranquilized😡 Sadly after he woke up, he called for his cubs to no use😭 He was named Zalim(Tyrant/cruel) because he was very aggressive dominant male Tiger who was not fond of human interaction & safari vehicles as he used to charge at them. He died in a territorial fight at the age of 15. Lived like a king all his prime👑🐯💪 But a very ironic father for the name he was given (Zalim) Sorry for breaking your hearts though😢

[@Anisa-wi5zj]

Great story but that’s rare. The default is that male tigers don’t take care of cubs and there is nothing wrong with that

[@SagarKumar-2322]

I have a very good story :- We had a pair of pigeons ,one was male and onenwas female. They had their first eggs and its had been 15-17 days and the eggs hadn't hatched . We usually opened the pigeons room so they can have a sun bath and play and fly , one day we opened the gate and both came out for sunbath . Male pigeon name was 'Daya'& female's name was'Purvi' . So Daya and Purvi was chilling out and suddenly the Purvi got freaked out by an eagle in the sky . She panicked and started flying . She got lost her way home and never came back . But Daya was a good father , he used to sit on eggs and after some days the eggs hatched and 2 beautiful twins came out , the chicks were so beautiful and balck and white in color . Daya used to feed them and take care of them . When the chicks grew up enough so they can fly and eat on their own , he said them goodbye and went for a search for his Purvi. That was so beautiful to see that pigeons also have a sense of care for thier offsprings.

Tigers are different than other cat species: They're solitary because they don't need other tigers to affirm their self-worth, but they're still smart enough to recognise family, and help out any relative that may be in need.

[@IDraw99]

Oh brother here we go again... Most mammals are a single mother society. The dad barely cares, in fact besides some rare kind gestures the dads couldn't care less about raising the cubs. They maul tiger cubs that are not theirs. Oth most human dads are involved and are not going to maul another male's offspring because it's competition or something. In fact, human males are willing to raise another's offspring. Why would you compare the two it makes zero sense unless you have Disney's idea of how animals behave. Let's just enjoy a rare sight and leave humans out of it.

This makes me wonder how much we don’t know about the relationships between wild male tigers and their Cubs. Tigers are considered solitary, but this just shows that Dad really wanted to be around Mum and Baby. So… there’s lots we don’t know, and so much more we can learn if we save them in the wild.
