Tigers are amazing big cats that can be found in a variety of wild habitats throughout Asia. Here's a closer look at the places tigers call home:
* Tropical Rainforests: Dense rainforests of Southeast Asia provide excellent cover and abundant prey for tigers. Sumatran tigers are the only subspecies of tiger found in rainforests.

* Mangrove Swamps: The Sundarbans mangrove forest, located on the border of India and Bangladesh, is a unique habitat where Bengal tigers thrive. These tigers are excellent swimmers and can navigate the brackish waters of the mangroves with ease.

* Grasslands and Savannas: Open grasslands and savannas provide good hunting grounds for tigers, with tall grasses allowing them to stalk their prey unseen. The Indochinese tiger is one subspecies that prefers this type of habitat.

* Temperate Forests: Siberian tigers, the largest tiger subspecies, can be found in the temperate forests of the Russian Far East. These forests have cold winters with deep snow, which these tigers are well-adapted to with their thick fur.

* Rocky Mountains and Foothills: Some tigers, such as the Amur tiger, also inhabit the foothills and mountainous regions of Asia. These areas offer a mix of forest cover and rocky outcrops that provide tigers with shelter and denning sites.
Habitat loss is one of the biggest threats to tigers in the wild. As human populations grow and development increases, tiger habitats are being destroyed or fragmented. This makes it difficult for tigers to find food and mates, and it can also lead to conflicts with humans.
