Panthera Tigris or the Tiger
is the largest of the cat species. Once found in abundance over Eastern Eurasia, it is now limited to parts of Asia and Russia. Most national parks in India identify tigers by their stripe patterns and name them with ‘T’ followed by a numeric, like ‘T-24’. Sometimes their names are inspired by their lineage, physical features or even the territory they occupy, like ‘Choti Tara’ (Tara Jr), ‘Kankati’ (the one with the cut ear lobe) or ‘Waghdoh Male’ (named after the Waghdoh area in Maharashtra, India).
