2015  International Journal of Innovative Research and Development (4): 212-215

Tiger is the largest, cutest and very able felids for wild to wild in wild. But it is very difficult to see food and feeding behaviour of tiger in open access or by direct observation. But through scat analysis we can reconstruct the direct or food of tiger. The undigested remain like hairs and bones of prey species provide the food and feeding behaviour of big cat. Total 132 scat were analyzed for food & feeding behaviour of tiger. Final result leads toward critical position regarding prey species for tiger survival.
