ABOUT TIGERS

Tigers appear in the mythology and folklore of many cultures throughout the world.

In addition, the tiger spirit animal is an important figure in the spiritual beliefs of local people from these cultures as well as many others around the world.

As the apex predator of their domain, the tiger is a revered symbol of strength.

Besides human beings and other tigers in their natural habitats – tigers have no rivals.

Weighing nearly 1,000 pounds, the tiger is the largest cat in the animal kingdom.

Their powerful jaws exert over 1,000 pounds per square inch.

Primarily nocturnal, the tiger is known to be a stealthy hunter.

They are extremely independent animals.

In fact, tigers are more elusive than lions, who live in large family groups called prides.

The tiger hunts and lives on their own, thinking for themselves.

Because of these traits, they symbolize shrewdness and cunning.

The tiger spirit animal reminds you that being book smart and following the crowd will only get you so far.

Being street smart, on the other hand, is the key to survival and success.

The tiger reminds you that you should always be calculating your next move.

In other words, don’t wait for life to happen to you. Instead, make life happen.

Because of their unrivaled status, the tiger exudes confidence over their domain.

Thus, they are powerful symbols of confidence and courage.

The tiger is very protective of their territory and they guard it with ferocity.

This is why they are symbols of protection in many ancient Asian cultures and throughout the world.
