Why Do Tigers Look Different to Us?

Hey there, little friend! Today, we’re going to learn something really fun about tigers!

What Color Are Tigers?

Tigers are usually orange with black stripes. That's how we see them. If we were walking in the jungle and saw a tiger, we would say, ‘Wow, look at that bright orange tiger!’

But What About Other Animals?

Now, here’s a cool part! Tigers like to eat other animals, which are called prey. Most of these prey are herbivores, which means they eat plants.

How Do Herbivores See Tigers?

Unlike us, these animals can see the world differently. To them, tigers might not look orange! Instead, they might see tigers as green. Can you imagine a green tiger? That would be funny!

Why is That Important?

This helps tigers sneak up on their dinner, just like playing hide and seek! If the herbivores can’t see the tiger well, it makes it easier for the tiger to catch its food.

In Summary

So remember, tigers are orange to us but might look green to the animals they hunt. Nature is really cool, isn’t it?
