Description
The Bengal tiger's coat is yellow to light orange, with stripes ranging from dark brown to black; the belly and the interior parts of the limbs are white, and the tail is orange with black rings.
Male Bengal tigers have an average total length of 270 to 310 cm (110 to 120 in) including the tail, while females measure 240 to 265 cm (94 to 104 in) on average.[9] The tail is typically 85 to 110 cm (33 to 43 in) long, and on average, tigers are 90 to 110 cm (35 to 43 in) in height at the shoulders.[10] The average weight of males is 221.2 kg (488 lb), while that of females is 139.7 kg (308 lb).[11] The smallest recorded weights for Bengal tigers are from the Bangladesh Sundarbans, where adult females are 75�80 kg (170�180 lb).
In the past, Indian censuses of wild tigers relied on the individual identification of footprints known as pug marks � a method that has been criticized as deficient and inaccurate, though now camera traps are being used in many places.
