Answer Hi, Sachin
A tiger's stripes are like our fingerprints. They are unique to each individual. This means that each tiger can have a different number of stripes.
Lions are also known to produce infrasounds, but not as much as tigers.
Yes, tigers have a good sense of smell, although not as developed as, say that of a bear or a wolf. However, they certainly have better sense of smell than we do! They often communicate using odor marks.
