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.

I think amur tiger is slightly more agile than Bengal tigers speaking about general way of life in the wild. We can observe movement of Bengal tigers they seem to walk with slight stress. They do not seem to express their agility more often. Agility in the sense ability to move body parts quickly. But when provoked they seem to express unmatched athleticism. There was an incident where a Bengal tigress in Nepal mauled a researcher who climbed a tree branch and was 15 feet above the ground. So Bengals can do exceptional feats when provoked. While amur tigers seem to be athletic and agile in general way of lifestyle.
Edit: @peter If you feel this is irrelevant here please feel free to move it to the thread where this was discussed or delete it.

I can confirm the event of the tigress in Nepal, is described in the book "Tiger Moon" of Fiona and Mel Sunquist.

@parvez, it seems that you can't receive more PM, please check them because I can't send you my answers to your last two questions.
