Answers
The tiger captivated in a cage in the zoo had lost its natural instincts. The tiger felt slave in the concrete cell. It felt like a prisoner. It missed its freedom in the forest where it should be lurking in the shadows; stalking its prey in the long grass near water hole, where deer came to drink water and where it lurked to pounce on them.
It could only walk a few steps in the cage. Many visitors came to see it but it did not pay any heed to them.
At night after everyone retires, it could only look at the stars from its cage.
tiger is a carnivorous animal and is known for its sharp and sudden attack on other animals and humans even after surrounded by people he is attacking nobody is full of anger but his rage has turned quite . he is no more than a showpiece or toy for entertainment . all these points show that he has lost his natural instinct due to captivity .
