Good morning-interesting fact. Years ago before retirement we were friends with tiger trainers, and they raised up the baby tigers too-This couple were in the states from Holland on visas they led an interesting life
I didn't know tigers couldn't purr. I think lions can purr. Now I'm curious. Maybe they can't either. I just looked it up and they can't either. Their throats are made for roaring loudly so they are missing the hyloid bone that lets cats purr. :)
Another fascinating fact. I once read that locals where masks of faces on the backs of their heads when working in the fields, because tigers won't attack anyone from the front. I find this hard to believe but it's an interesting concept and maybe it's fact.
Fascinating!
ReplyDeleteI never knew tigers can’t purr.
Tigers blink trust--just like cats at home!
Thank you! That's fascinating. 😊

ReplyDeleteThank you for the info. My (warmie-)tiger has his eyes wide open - reckon he has an eye out on/for me at night, warming me ;-)
ReplyDeleteA fascinating fact, Christine. Thanks for enlightening us!
