Habitat

Tigers live in thick forests or areas with tall grasses to hide in and plenty of prey to eat. They don't like open habitat; they need cover. Most kinds of tigers live in warm countries but in Russia, Bhutan, China and some parts of India, tigers can also live in extremely cold environments.
