Bengal tiger behavior
• Mothers have at most 5 cubs, and each is 2 pounds. For 2 months the cubs drink their mothers milk, but after that they eat meat. After 18 months of age the cubs hunt on their own.
• Also a Bengal tiger can eat up to 40 pounds of food.
• A Bengal tiger eats monkeys and frogs for little stuff but for a whole meal they may eat wild pigs and deer.
Bengal tiger behavior
• Bengal tigers hunt like every other tiger they pounce on their prey then bite its neck to kill it.
• Tigers find mates like this: A male tiger sets up a territory using many different things including smells and scratch marks. When a female tiger comes up to the territory it may like the male and vice versa. They might mate.
