BALI TIGER!;
The Bali tiger (Panthera tigris balica), also called the Balinese tiger, is an extinct subspecies of tiger found solely on the small Indonesian island of Bali. The tiger was one of three sub-species of tiger found in Indonesia along with the Javan tiger (also extinct) and Sumatran tiger (severely endangered).
It was the smallest of the tiger sub-species; the last tiger to be shot was in 1925, and the sub-species was declared extinct on September 27, 1937. Given the small size of the island, and limited forest cover, the original population could never have been large, and it is considered unlikely that any survive today.
The subspecies became extinct due to habitat loss and hunting.
Characteristics!
Weight:
The weight of a male tiger was usually 90-100 kg (198-221 pounds).
Females weighed in at 65-80 kg (142-175 pounds).
Length:
A male Bali tiger's length was around 7'-4" to 7'-7".
A female's length would have been 6'-3" to 6'-5".

Appearance!
Bali tigers had short fur that was deep orange colored and darker, fewer stripes than other tiger sub-species. Occasionally, between the stripes, there were small black spots. Bali tigers also had unusual bar-shaped patterns on the head.
Life!
Balinese tigers lived up to approximently 8-10 years of age.
Prey/Predators!
The only known predators of Bali tigers were humans. Like all tigers, the Bali tigers were carnivore/carnivorous. The Bali tigers preyed upon most mammals that lived within their habitat.
