About Tiger Appearance
and Physical Characteristics
Though slim and elegant, tigers are immensely powerful. Their front legs and
paws are tremendously strong: they can kill young elephants and rhino and drag
prey weighing 200 kg. (5001 bs.) Or more. Tigers walk on the fore pads of their
feet, which gives their stride suppleness and elasticity.
Spotting a Tiger
in the Wild The
first thing you realize is that you seldom watch an animal satisfactorily just
by luck. This certainly applies to mammals. An animal detects your present long
before you know it is there. In every case it is a contest of wits you are pitting
your knowledge against the instincts of self preservation of a wild animal,
instincts that are helped by acute senses, particularly those of smell and hearing.

Photographic Tips Lighting :
Top lighting effect is not ideal for photographing wildlife or landscapes; low
side lighting is better for showing detail in wildlife subjects and creates
more interesting shadows in landscapes. So its important to make full
use of the light at sunrise and again in the later afternoon.
