The tiger is the largest wild cat in the world. The big cat weighs about 363 kilograms and is about two meters long.
Tigers wait until it is dark, and then they go out to find their food. When a tiger sees an animal, it moves very quietly, and then jumps on the animal to kill it. Sometimes it can take several days for a tiger to finish eating its kill. The tiger eats until it has enough, then it covers the dead（死的）animal with leaves. Later when the tiger is hungry again, it comes back to eat some more. The tigers are different from others in the cat family. They like water and they often jump into rivers to swim.
Some tigers live in very cold places in India and parts of South Asia.
All tigers are in danger. People kill them to use their skins (皮) for clothes, and their bodies for medicine. In addition, there is also less and less land for tigers to live on. But now people know that tigers are in danger and are making plans to protect them. Title: the largest ____76____cat What’s the _____77____ The big cat is about 363 kilograms
