Description
While most cats despise water, tigers love taking baths to help keep themselves cool during the hottest parts of the day. They�ll submerge themselves in nearby lakes and streams, soaking for up to an hour, but neck deep only. Tigers don�t like getting water in their eyes, to the point that they�ll actually enter the water backwards to prevent this from happening.
Once they return to dry land, the combination of the wetness and the wind has a pleasant cooling effect on the tiger�s body and if it starts to wear off, no problem � they just repeat the process. And thanks to their webbed feet, tigers are also powerful swimmers, and have been known to cover up to 20 miles in a single outing!
