Tiger facts

Good morning! Just want to share a few fact about tigers. All this stuff you can find on the net, but I thought I would bring it close to you through the Nepal Tiger Project.

  • The tiger is the biggest species of the cat family.
  • Tigers can reach a length of up to 3.3 metres (11 feet) and weigh as much as 
    300 kilograms (660 pounds).
  • Subspecies of the tiger include the Sumatran Tiger, Siberian Tiger, Bengal Tiger, South China Tiger,
    Malayan Tiger and Indochinese Tiger.
  • Many subspecies of the tiger are either endangered or already extinct. Humans are the primary
    cause of this through hunting and the destruction of habitats.

    It's nuts how we as a specie in the past can be so harmful. Now in the age of communication 
    and information, we are able to share our values and hope that other people see it the way we do. 
    Hopefully we can all learn to live together in this great world.

    Have a great week! Peace!

  1. Everest Base Camp luxury Trek provides ample time for important acclimatization. Furthermore, frequent acclimatising gives more chances to enjoy successful treks in the Everest region. A wonderfully scenic flight to one of the world’s highest airstrips – Lukla, opens to an alpine world of exceptional beauty. The air is so pure and colourful prayer flags flutter from rooftops, welcoming you to this sublime region.
    The well-marked trail takes us through the well-known villages of Namche and Dingboche as well as Tengboche monastery; which reflects the true Sherpa culture. In addition, we make an ascent to Kala Pathar at (5545m). This is the point we get to view the famous climbing routes to the legendary summit of Mount Everest.
