Tigers were an uncommon species of large cat.[7][5]
Description[]
Tigers were distinguished from other great cats by their orange fur and black stripes. Also, unlike other great cats, tigers were great swimmers.[7]
Tigers were excellent climbers and could jump long distances. They could jump 10 feet (3 meters) into the air and leap outward to ranges of 30 to 50 feet (9.1 to 15 meters).[5]
Sub-Species[]
- Red tiger, a species of hearty wild cat that could be found throughout the North.[6]
- Snow tiger, a species of hearty wild cat that was native to the land of Rashemen.[8]
Ecology[]
These creatures typically hunted in pairs or family groups.[5]
Habitats[]
Tigers were a highly adaptable species, known to inhabit both tropical and subarctic forests across the Realms.[5][7]
In South Faerûn, they inhabited the Ajmer Forest and the Forest of Amtar.[9]
Beyond the Prime Material plane, like most mundane animals these creatures could be found in the Beastlands,[10] particularly on the layer of Brux.[11]
Usage[]
Aurora's Whole Realms Catalogue sold tiger hides for 25 gp a piece.[12]
