A tigress can have cubs from different fathers in the same litter.
Tiger stripes are as individual as human fingerprints.
A tiger, or any cat, does not "sharpen" its claws by scratching a tree or post.
It removes the outer layer of the claw to reveal a fresh 'sharp' one.
A cats tongue is like an extra tool.. it is very rough coated with sharp pointed,
pimple like structures called 'papillae'. The tongue easily lacerates and softens
flesh and rasps lumps from the carcass.
