Question

why are tigers called as endemic species?

Answer 1

The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest catspecies, most recognizable for its pattern of dark vertical stripes on reddish-orange fur with a lighter underside. The species is classified in the genus Panthera with the lion, leopard, jaguar, and snow leopard. It is an apex predator, primarily preying on ungulatessuch as deer and bovids. It is territorial and generally a solitary but social predator, often requiring large contiguous areas of habitatthat support its prey requirements. This, coupled with the fact that it is indigenous to some of the more densely populated places on Earth, has caused significant conflicts with humans.

Answer 2

It is because they are now very rare and if we don't take care of them then they may soon extinct. endemic species means species being unique to a defined geographic location, such as an island, nation, country or other defined zone, or habitat type.
