Did you know: No two tigers have the same stripes. Like human fingerprints, their stripe patterns are unique to each individual. Stripes range in color from light brown to black and are not symmetrical on both sides of the tiger. Tigers are the only cat species that are completely striped. They even have stripes on their skin. Stripe density varies by subspecies. The stripes on a Sumatran tiger are closer together than those on any other subspecies.
