DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE TIGER?





Angelina : Do you know anything about the tiger?


Laila : Yes, I just read a book about the tiger.


Angelina : Could you tell me about it? I have to make a report on it.


Laila : Sure. The tiger or panthera tigris is the largest member of the cat family. They
are also the only cat that has stripes. There are many types of tiger. The
Sumatran tiger is the smallest tiger, yet the Bangal tiger is the largest tiger.
Right now they are endangered because of habitat destruction and illegal
hunting for sport and body parts.


Angelina : I see. Can you tell me specific information about them?


Laila : Certainly. Well, tigers can be found in Southern Asia, China, and Russia.
They usually live in forests, grasslands, savannas, and swamps.


Angelina : And what else?


Laila : Well, they weigh from 75 to 258 kg. Their body is about 2 to 3 metres long.
And their tail is about 1 metre long. Their colour varies depending on their
type. Some are brown and black, orange and black, and white and black.


Angelina : Mm…


Laila : Tigers are carnivore, which means that they eat meat. They like to eat large
mammals, such as deer, buffalos, and antelopes.


Angelina : Right. That was very complete information. Thanks Laila.


Laila : You’re welcome Angelina.
