The tiger is the largest living cat species and a member of the genus Panthera.

- Breeding hybrids is now discouraged due to the emphasis on conservation.
- By contrast, the male tiger does not pass on a growth-promoting gene and the lioness passes on a growth inhibiting gene, hence tigons are around the same size as either species.
- Because the lion sire passes on a growth-promoting gene, but the corresponding growth-inhibiting gene from the female tiger is absent, ligers grow far larger than either parent species.
- They share physical and behavioural qualities of both parent species.
- The former born to a female tiger and male lion and the latter the result of a male tiger and female lion.

- Captive tigers were bred with lions to create hybrids called liger and tigon.

- It was found to have repeat compositions much as other cat genomes and "an appreciably conserved synteny".
- The tiger's full genome sequence was published in 2013.
- The tiger populations on the Sunda Islands and mainland Asia were possibly separated during interglacial periods.
- The Caspian tiger population was likely connected to the Bengal tiger population through corridors below elevations of 4,000 m (13,000 ft) in the Hindu Kush.
- The resulting model shows a contiguous tiger range at the Last Glacial Maximum, indicating gene flow between tiger populations in mainland Asia.
- The potential tiger range during the late Pleistocene and Holocene was predicted applying ecological niche modelling based on more than 500 tiger locality records combined with bioclimatic data.
- Results of a phylogeographic study indicate that all living tigers had a common ancestor 108,000 to 72,000 years ago.
- Fossil remains of tigers were also excavated in Sri Lanka, China, Japan and Sarawak dating to the Late Pliocene, Pleistocene and Early Holocene.
- or that the tiger colonised Palawan from Borneo before the Holocene.
- It has been speculated that the tiger parts were either imported from elsewhere,
- They were smaller than mainland tiger fossils, possibly due to insular dwarfism.
- In the Ille Cave on the island of Palawan, two articulated phalanx bones were found amidst an assemblage of other animal bones and stone tools.

- It may have accessed Borneo, when the sea level was low during a glaciation period, and may have survived until about 200 years ago.
- Fossil teeth and bones found in Borneo were attributed to the Bornean tiger and date to about 13,745 to 3,000 years ago.
- Today, we proudly introduce ourselves as Avara.
Avara is the home to some of the most innovative web3 brands: Aave, Lens Protocol, GHO, Sonar, and now Family, all building towards a people powered internet that benefits all.
We're thrilled to announce the acquisition of Family. With Family, led by Benji Taylor, we're reinforcing our commitment to making web3 accessible through world class product design.

- which could indicate tiger presence in Alaska during the last glacial period, about 100,000 years ago.
- Some fossil skulls are morphologically distinct from lion skulls,
- We rewrote the code and added some features.
Now go build.

- Tigers reached India and northern Asia in the late Pleistocene, reaching eastern Beringia, Japan, and Sakhalin.
- The Wanhsien, Ngandong, Trinil, and Japanese tigers became extinct in prehistoric times.
- Lenny is heading to Devconnect and @lens/ethglobal İstanbul
- Panthera tigris trinilensis lived about 1.2 million years ago and is known from fossils excavated near Trinil in Java.
- which may have occurred in Southeast Asia during the Early Pleistocene.
- Tigers grew in size, possibly in response to adaptive radiations of prey species like deer and bovids,
- Northwestern China is thought to be the origin of the tiger lineage.
- It is disputed as to whether it had the striping pattern.
- but functionally and ecologically similar to the modern tiger.
- It was smaller and more "primitive",
- its fossil remains were excavated in Gansu Province, northwestern China.
- Mint Hey!

- It lived at the beginning of the Pleistocene about two million years ago,
- Panthera zdanskyi is considered to be a sister taxon of the modern tiger.
- The tiger–snow leopard lineage dispersed in Southeast Asia during the Miocene.
- The geographic origin of the *Panthera* is most likely northern Central Asia.
- and that both may be more closely related to each other than to the lion, leopard and jaguar.
- the tiger and the snow leopard lineages diverged from the other Panthera species,
- Results of genetic analysis indicate that about 2.88 million years ago,
- The tiger's closest living relatives were previously thought to be the Panthera species lion, leopard and jaguar.
- The population is thought to be of mainland Asian origin and to have been isolated about 6,000 to 12,000 years ago after a rise in sea-level created Sumatra.
