What Are Some Bengal Tiger Adaptations?
Last Updated Apr 1, 2020 12:43:01 PM ET
The Bengal tiger has many adaptations ranging from its camouflaged coat, its large eyes and strong muscles for capturing prey, its fur and warm blood to keep it warm in the jungle and its lungs and nostrils for oxygen support. One of the most obvious Bengal tiger adaptations is its ability to hunt prey.
The Bengal tiger is considered one of the fiercest predators in the jungle because of its adapted sharp teeth, pointed claws, large eyes and massive muscle structure that allows it to stalk prey and then pounce quickly with force. The tiger is then able to rip apart the prey and chew it in large pieces to maximize its consumption.
