Tigers

Tigers are mammals and part of the apex  family and one of four Big Cats. They are Predators and the largest species of cat  in the world. The Bengal Tiger is the most common subspecies of tiger, constituting approximately 80 percent of  the entire tiger population, and is found in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar, Nepal, and India. An endangered species, the majority of the world's tigers now live in captivity.

 

 

Cheetahs

The Cheetah is an a typical member of the cat family, a poor climber that hunts by speed rather than by stealth. As such, it is placed in its own genus. It is the fastest of all land animals and although its fastest speed is unknown, it can reach speeds of more than 65 mph in short bursts up to 500 yards, as well as being able to accelerate from 0 to 110 in three seconds, faster than most cars

 

 

Lions

Lions are mammals in the Big Cats family. They are Predators and the largest species of cat in the world. In the wild, lions live for around 10–14 years, while in captivity they can live over 20 years. Though they were once found throughout much of Africa, Asia, and Europe lions presently exist in the wild only in Africa and India. They enjoy hot climates, and hunt in groups.

 

Jaguars

The Jaguar is a New World Mammal of the Big Cat family. The jaguar is the third-largest feline after the tiger and the lion, and on average the largest and most powerful feline in the Western Hemisphere. The jaguar's present range extends from Mexico, across much of Central America and south to Paraguay and northern Argentina
