Indochinese tigers are found mainly
in Thailand. Indochinese tigers are also found in Myanmar, southern China, Cambodia, Laos,
Vietnam, and peninsular Malaysia. Within this range tigers usually live in remote
forests in hilly to mountainous terrain, which lies between the border of countries.

feet from head to tail and weigh about 400 pounds. Females are smaller, measuring about 8
feet in length and weighing approximately 250 pounds. The Indochinese tiger eats wild pig,
