Tigre es una de las veinticuatro especies de este atlas. No es un catálogo: trata evolución, anatomía, conducta, cultura, iconos, conservación y área como un solo sistema.
Las puntuaciones comparan velocidad, inteligencia, área, resiliencia, impacto cultural y rol ecológico. Son juicios editoriales relativos, no un ranking de laboratorio.
Siete capítulos profundizan: orígenes, cuerpo y sentidos, vida y conducta, cultura, iconos, presión de conservación y el área que se comparte con la gente.
Introducción profunda
Deep dive: Tigre
Tigre is not a single postcard animal. It is a set of populations, subspecies and human rules inside the wildlife family of this atlas.
Diversidad, cuerpos, cultura y áreas — más una lente de esta región lingüística.
Diversity inside the type
Field guides collapse many lineages into the English word Tigre. Subspecies, flyways and captive lines do not share one fate -- bald eagles and Philippine eagles, or western and mountain gorillas, are the caution.
This atlas picks a Wikipedia title as the hero image and then keeps the rest of the grade in view so a recovered stock cannot launder a CR cousin.
Life in the landscape
A solitary pantherine with a long body, striped disruptive coat and forelimbs built to wrestle large ungulates. Canines and a killing bite to the neck or throat finish what the ambush starts.
Sit-and-ambush on chital, sambar, wild pig and, in the Amur, deer and boar. A large kill funds days; livestock is the conflict calorie.
Culture and meaning
English-language culture met the Tigre through film, law, heraldry and zoos. Those portrayals move money and sometimes take; they are not a field census.
The culture chapter dates posters and statutes so a 1975 film or a 1961 logo cannot pretend to be a 2020s Red List.
Conservation and money
Endangered. Wild numbers rose in India after Project Tigre (1973) and Tx2 pledges (2010); Southeast Asian and South China lineages did not share that graph.
Tourism, conflict payments, quotas and captive loans are dated economic bands in the market chapter -- not live prices and not a best-species prize.

Biology deep dive: Tigre
Tigre biology is a stack of structure, energy, sensing and hard limits. The four sections below are the same headings used across the atlas so types can be compared without a best-species frame.
Anatomía, sentidos, conducta y límites — más el lenguaje de campo de esta región.
Structure
A solitary pantherine with a long body, striped disruptive coat and forelimbs built to wrestle large ungulates. Canines and a killing bite to the neck or throat finish what the ambush starts.
Load paths and tissues (not metals) are expanded in the anatomy chapter.
Energy and foraging
Sit-and-ambush on chital, sambar, wild pig and, in the Amur, deer and boar. A large kill funds days; livestock is the conflict calorie.
The how-it-works diagrams reduce that budget to a six-node loop.
Senses and control
Night vision and hearing in closed forest. Stripes break outline more than they advertise.
Control here means the animal steering itself -- not a vehicle ECU.
Limits
A few thousand animals, shrinking SE Asian forest, and a prey base that snares erase. High cultural impact does not raise resilience.
Resilience scores encode those limits relative to the other 23 types.
