Answer:
The poet of the poem "Tiger in the zoo" is attempting to draw a comparison between a tiger in a zoo and a tiger in its actual natural habitat.
Explanation:
The tiger is a mighty animal. It is unfortunate that such a strong, quick, and wild animal should be kept in a zoo's cage.
He doesn't require any assistance of any type to hunt for food in his natural and untamed habitat. It could appear cruel of him to hunt deer near the water hole. He goes hunting for food, not for fun.
To keep the food chain in balance, he must remain in his natural habitat. The tiger might occasionally go into populated areas. He simply shows off his might and ferocity.
However, he waits to hurt someone until he is provoked. He ignores everyone that visits the zoo to watch him as entertainment, even in his cage.
The tiger loves and treasures his freedom much like people do. He prowls around in his cage in a frenzy as a way of expressing his rage, resentment, and even defiance.
The advancement of humanity shouldn't come at the expense of eradicating the natural habitats of fierce and independent creatures like tigers.
