Cats Vs. Tigers by Madison Montgomery https://padlet.com/madison_montgomery1/on71ovj3fsvp by Madison Montgomery en-us 2019-12-05 04:48:58 UTC 2019-12-05 15:10:56 UTC hello@padlet.com Introduction madison_montgomery1 https://padlet.com/madison_montgomery1/on71ovj3fsvp/wish/420061243
OH NO, his hand just got bitten off by a tiger! Just kidding, but did he know a tiger’s jaws can rip through skin and bone? Tigers won’t actually physically harm a person, unless the tiger feels like that human is threatening. Humans kill the tigers more than tigers actually kill or harm people. Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson states that nobody can turn down that humans slaughter the tigers in numerous numbers, equal to how much they actually take down us (thedodo). Domestic cats, on the other hand, are more cuddly, kind, and friendly type of cat someone can meet. Cats aren’t known to actually severely hurt a human, unless it's a couple of small scratches. Cats and tigers have so many similarities, but they also have some differences. ]]> 2019-12-05 04:54:30 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_montgomery1/on71ovj3fsvp/wish/420061243 Body Paragraph 1 madison_montgomery1 https://padlet.com/madison_montgomery1/on71ovj3fsvp/wish/420061257  Most people know some common similarities with our wild cats and are domestic cats, but maybe someone didn’t know some not so common ones. Wild cats and our domestic cats have the same dental set up with their teeth. Toni Haberkorn explains that these two animals have the same amount of canines, molars, premolars, and incisors (crownridgetigers). Incisors are the narrow-edge teeth at the front of the mouth, made for cutting into something or chewing. Domestic cats and wild cats have the same paw also. “Comparing Tigers and Our Cats” states that the paws on both have the same number of pads and contracting nails. They also use these paws for the same functions as well, like scratching (page 7). On page 8 of “Comparing Tigers and Our Cats” it claims that both tigers and cats climb to feel secure about their surroundings. The higher they are, the more secure they feel about their surroundings because they can view more than being on the ground. They also love to climb because it helps exercise and stretch out all their muscles in there body (page 8). Therefore, cats and tigers have all these similarities that we know about, but what about the differences they have?

Almost, if not everyone, knows that the most common differences are their size and how they eat. However, that’s not all the differences that they share those are just the most visual and common sense ones. “Comparing Tigers to Our Cats” explains that our tigers have the normal circle pupil shape like humans have, but cats have slits as their pupils. Cats can have all kinds of different color eyes, even some of them have one eye one color and the other eye a different color than that. Tigers, on the other hand, only have copper or hazel colored eyes. Another different physical feature that our cats and tigers have is that our domestic cats are the only feline that can hold up their tale in a vertical position while its walking or running; while our wild cats can only hold their tales horizontally or between their back legs (page 18). Who knew that there were as many differences in between these two cats, along with all the similarities?

In the articles, they both put well information about the differences and similarities between the two cats. In conclusion, cats and tigers are one of the most similar, but also different animals in the world today.
