He should be snarling around houses

At the jungle’s edge,

Baring his white fangs, his claws,

Terrorising the village!

His strength behind bars,

Stalking the length of his cage,

Ignoring visitors

Answer:

a) The tiger is slowly and quietly moving along the length of the cage in a threatening manner. He is ignoring the visitors because he considers them devoid of any feelings. None of them thinks of releasing him from his prison. Thus, he stops taking any notice of them.

b) The poet narrates how the tiger can walk only inside the cage as he is trapped inside in the zoo. ... Whereas, if the tiger were in his normal habitat, he could have enjoyed his life the way he wanted.

e) the main theme of this poem refers to the freedom of the wild animals. we human beings have used them relentlessly for our own entertainment not thinking about the freedom of the animal which gets curtailed. the tiger in the zoo is contrasted to tiger in its natural habitat.
