what are tigers used for?

Tiger use can be subdivided into 2 categories. One use is that which is done by nature & the other that which is done by man. Nature uses tiger to keep a balance in the food chain. Tigers are predators & hunt down other animals thus keeping down their numbers. Humans rather misuse the tiger by poaching & using their various parts to make so called medecines. This action has reduced the numbers of tigers in the wild considerbly & the tiger has become an endangered animal.

According to the videos ive just seen, the tigers better!\n\nBut the lion wins in this one:\n\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4318948967926803903\n\nOf course either can win really... it depends on the animal and if a mother is protecting her young or whatever.

Elephants primarily use their tusks to pry bark off trees, dig in the ground and for some amount of intra-species conflict resolution (i.e. hitting other elephants).\n\nThey also use them as weaponry, spearing predators like lions that may pose a danger to the calfs.\n\nThey'll also use them like a table, spreading their food out on their tusks in front of them so they can get a better look at it and manipulate it more easily with their trunks.\n\nIn the case of extinct elephants like woolly mammoths, wear patterns on the underside of the tusks indicate that they also used them to sweep aside snow - probably very useful to reach the reindeer moss, lichen and grass under the snow in glacial periods.

Well, let's see. Male lions lay around all day and let the females hunt. They barely ever attack. A tiger could take a male lion down easily, but a female lion would be a different story.

You're making more of a point than asking a question there really aren't you? Well yeah we turn a blind eye, things get killed, other things eat them. It's the way things are. If I was a tiger you wouldn't be giving me a lecture. But then I wouldn't have a second thought about eating YOU would I?

Siberian Tigers use scent (pheromone) communication by clawing trees and spraying urine to mark their territory, which can be many square miles in size. Vocalizations, however, constitute the tiger's main means of communication. Tigers are quite articulate and have a wide variety of vocalizations, such as chuffing, which is a type of affectionate greeting, growling, hissing, grunting, roaring and mewling, which is only used by cubs and courting tigers. Several of these vocalizations can be heard from some distance, and tiger roars can be heard several miles away.\n\nIn 2000 it was discovered that tigers, like whales, elephants, rhinos, and other animals, could create sounds low in frequency and some that are infrasonic and inaudible to the human ear. Twenty-four tigers were recorded at the Carnivore Preservation Trust in Pittsboro, N.C., and the Riverbanks Zoological Park in Columbia, S.C. It was found that tigers can create sounds around 18 hertz.\n\nThe use of infrasound is believed to be very advantageous for the tigers, as they would be able to communicate with each other through dense forest, and over long distances. Now it will be necessary to test whether tigers can hear these infrasonic and low frequency sounds. The more that we know about the legendary tiger, the more we can do to save them, and their place, in the wild.\nThat's all i know . Peace<3.

The lion would win. The lion and the tiger are almost evenly matched in cunning, hunting skills and speed, however, the lion has the advantage of more muscle strength and thereby more stamina. As the fight will get stretched, the scales will tip in favor of the lion. This is the basic rule of one-to-one combat - that the longer the battle extends, the factor of physical strength becomes more and more decisive. So clearly, here, lion has the advantage. \n\nIn one of the programs on Discovery, a similar research was carried out in which the strengths and weakness of both these predators were matched. They made out models of them and calculated the force applied and all other factors in various consitions. The lion came on tops.

Your argument paper may want to show that not only owners can abuse animals.  \n\nSometimes the shelters abuse them too by putting them to sleep too fast because they don't want to spend the time finding homes for animals.\n\nThey also keep them cooped up in cages.  \n\nWhen they are in the cages, they are not played with enough.\n\nMaybe your argument paper can show that animal shelters do not do enough to find homes for animals.  \n\nYou can show that there needs to be a overhaul.\n\nThen again, your argument paper can show that tigers are almost extinct.  There used to be 500,000 and now there are only 5000 left.  People poach them.  You should argue against poachers and save the tigers from extinction. \n\nFind out who's working to do that.

lions and tigers are one i know of. aka ligers/tygons. i believe wolves/dogs can be too. i would assume that there could be a lot more possibilities as long as they are in the same family of animal.

A White Tiger, I don't know about the life I would have though. Many white tigers are in captivity.
