Four out the five living tiger subspecies' morphology (physical structure and appearance) exhibit a cline. A cline occurs when a single species gradually begins to look different over its geographic distribution as it adapts to varying climates and habitats. Therefore the species at the northern end of their geographic distribution may look very different in size, color, hair-density, etc. than their southern counterparts. The Tiger cline depicts subspecies decrease in size and have darker stripe coloration the further south their range extends. Adult male Indo-Chinese tigers (Panthera tigris corbetti) may weigh up to 182 kg (400 lbs.) and measure about 2.8 m (9ft) in length. Females are smaller, weighing about 115 kg (250 lbs.) and measure about 2.4 meters (8 ft) in length. Tigers have a reduced-sized clavicle (collarbone). This characteristic enables them to attain greater stride lengths because the smaller clavicle allows for a wider, unrestricted range of movement of the scapula (shoulder blade) when running.

There have been reported sightings of blue tigers. There is little evidence supporting this color variation in tigers. However, since the blue colored trait exists in some lynx and bobcat families; it is not ruled out as a possibility. In contrast to the ear, their sense of smell is not very sharp, so it does not play a significant role in hunting. However, it is useful for detecting odorous signs from other tigers. They have a modest amount of olfactory cells in the nose and an olfactory bulb in the brain. Tigers are the largest cats in the world. However, the size of each particular subspecies depends on several factors like habitat, climate, food, prey and so on.The bones of the tiger's front legs are strong and dense to support the large musculature needed to take down large prey. Mammals have tongues. A tongue is a muscle. The left and right sides of the tongue are separated by a vertical section of fibrous tissue, called a lingual septum.

One of the things that makes a tiger’s tongue unique is a structure called a papilla. Papillae are small projections on the top of the tongue that can be either rounded or spiky. To some, the papillae make it look like tigers have furry tongues. In fact, this furry appearance is what gives a tiger’s tongue its sandpaper-like qualities. Why Do Tigers Have Rough Tongues? # Both the legs and the shoulder regions of tigers are extremely muscular and powerful, which gives them the ability to subdue various types of prey instantly. They also have paws which help them to climb and to grasp things being the ones of males larger than those of the females.
