WHY TIGERS ARE NOT IN AFRICA? Tigers, among the most revered and majestic creatures in the animal kingdom, are conspicuously absent from the African continent. This omission is particularly puzzling given Africa's diverse ecosystems, which vary from rainforests to savannas and appear to be ideal for these large cats. The reasons for their absence are a combination of evolutionary history, geography, and ecological niches.For example, the dense jungle habitats of Asia, where tigers are apex predators, differ significantly from Africa's open savannas, where hunting techniques and adaptations vary.
