Bengal Tiger: The King of Mangroves

The Bengal tiger is a master predator and an iconic inhabitant of the Sundarbans mangroves, the largest mangrove forest in the world. These tigers have adapted to the tidal ecosystem, often swimming between islands and navigating dense vegetation to hunt their prey.

Their diet includes axis deer, wild boars, and fish, which they hunt with incredible precision and power. The Bengal tiger's ability to thrive in such a challenging environment demonstrates its resilience and versatility.

However, rising sea levels, habitat destruction, and human-tiger conflict pose significant threats to this majestic animal. Conservation efforts in the Sundarbans focus on habitat restoration and anti-poaching measures to protect Bengal tigers and their unique environment.
