Sumatran Tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) are at risk of extinction. In nature, they have no more than 300 individuals. Sumatran Tiger is not very similar to their relatives in India, the Amur region, and so on.. These tigers are not as great as Indian (Bengali) and the Amur tiger.

Rare Sumatran Tiger ambush: he usually tries to sniff out prey, then steals her with grace and finally jumps out of the bushes (or other cover) and rushes in pursuit. That is why the Sumatran Tiger small size and have powerful legs. This is great for the long chase. Sometimes Sumatran Tiger running for the intended purpose of almost the entire island, and even the case when a tiger chasing buffalo - a rare prey - a few days.
