The Bengal tiger does not have this name because it needs help to walk. He is called that just because he lives in the Bengal region of Asia. In fact, he jumps and runs very well and is a great hunter. This species can measure almost 4 meters from the head to the end of the tail and can weigh up to 250 kilos.
