Bengal tiger

The Bengal tiger is the second largest of the tiger subspecies, after the Siberian tiger. Its fur is reddish yellow or reddish brown with a white belly. The outside of their ears are black with white spots. Its tail is about half the length of its body. They spend most of their day territorially, leaving feces or claw marks mixed with anal gland secretions on trees and rocks. When they give birth, they raise their young exclusively in their den for about one to two months. After about a year and a half, they live on their own.
