 The Sumatran tiger as its name suggests is found only on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia. It is the smallest of the tigers alive today - a Sumatran male will measure an average of 2.4m from its nose to the tip of its tail and weigh between100-170kg. Like all tigers the Sumatran is critically endangered because of poaching and habitat destruction there are as few as 350 left in the wild today.

The tiger's bright, contrasting colors and the matching leaf colors make this more than just a routine zoo photo. Good job!

Nice shot, but could have done with a little less saturation, his color looks a little unnatural.

Was the tiger really that red or have you over saturated?

Lovely tiger. The orange is so dominant that it makes everything else look desaturated. I think the leaves make great highlights in this picture.
