Mad Pistol the only real difference between domestic cats and tigers is that tigers are not domesticated and are more than willing to kill and eat you.

@aelianeveningfalls4291 8 жыл бұрын

TheOnlyGBeast usually, they are not. Tigers don't often kill humans.

@TheOnlyGBeast 8 жыл бұрын

tigers rank pretty high on human deaths per year. The most comprehensive study of deaths due to tiger attacks estimates that at least 373,000 people died due to tiger attacks between 1800 and 2009

@aelianeveningfalls4291 8 жыл бұрын

Fortunately, a tiger turning to human prey is rare. A tiger usually makes one large kill every week. For India's 1,700-odd tigers, that adds up to more than 85,000 kills in a year. If humans were part of a tiger's natural diet, and since there are people everywhere in India, a good number of these 85,000 kills would be humans. The truth is, less than 85 people are killed or injured - accidentally or otherwise - in a year by tigers here. Many times more die of snakebites or rabies. ^ verbatim from a bbc article. I believe you can find it by searching the text i posted. I'll add that research seems to suggest that only weakened tigers resort to killing humans, and that often many deaths are to be attributed to a single tiger, rather than being an habit of many tigers. So yeah, tigers killing humans are the exception, not the rule.

One swipe of it's paw and it could break your arm, or tear it off if it used it's claws. Or it could bite your head with 1000 PSI which would really fuck you up because the human skull breaks at 1400 PSI at it's thickest part.

Why do people like you think Tigers are friendly. They are wild animals and have killed Bears, Crocodiles, Leopards and Lions but you still think they're nice. In this area they understand humans are their friends? really...It is in the wild, the Tiger was focused on the Robot. Did you see the rest of the episode where the Tiger ambushed 2 cars packed with these "friends" and they just managed to escape. Didn't think so.
