There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Im kind of new here on this site, sort of....
I got a question.... is there a possible detailed description of a Caspian Tiger? (Or a colored photo), since i need the real colors of the Caspian Tiger...
I mean the fur and the stripes
Was it identical to the Siberian ones, or was it different?
It's just that i have a Caspian Tiger OC, and i don't know the fur colors....
This thread is loaded with good photographs of Caspian tigers, Svet Tigr. You can find more in the tiger extinction thread. That thread also has a detailed description of Caspian tigers from V. Mazak and a few others. I also posted information on Caspian tigers shot near Mazanderan (Iran) in that thread.
Colour and stripewise, Caspian tigers were quite different from Amur tigers. Same for skulls, size and behaviour.
The Caspian region is large. Tigers shot in the northwestern part were quite different from tigers shot in the eastern part. Reports about tigers seen in remote parts of Afghanistan still come in, but they've never been confirmed by biologists.
Uhhh... i want to ask for a more exact description, since i don't know if this coloring (or adaptation, if you must), is right.
