Siberian tiger is one of the largest tiger subspecies. It is said that the adult male of Northeast Tiger is 45.5 kg (100 kg) heavier than the adult male, but this statement cannot be supported by the measured data.
The tiger's body is covered with light yellow to red hair with black to brown stripes, which can blend in with the grassland background and is a good protective color to avoid being found by prey. The abdomen and inner limbs are white or white-yellow. Hair is short and smooth in summer and obviously longer in winter. The stripes on each tiger's face are different, similar to human fingerprints. Investigators can judge different individuals accordingly.
Extended data:
There are 230 ~ 283 tiger bones, which are divided into two parts: axial skeleton and appendage skeleton.
Axial skeleton includes skull, spine, sternum and ribs. The spine consists of a series of vertebrae (including cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, sacral vertebrae and coccygeal vertebrae).
Appendicular bones include shoulder straps, belts, forelimb bones and hind limb bones. The shoulder strap consists of the scapula and clavicle. The waistband consists of three pairs of bones, namely ilium, ischium and pubis.
