Tiger cub mortality: The mortality rate for wild tigers in the first two years of life is very high -- at least 50%. Estimates consider that only one cub from each litter survives to maturity.
An interesting comparison can be made here between the lion and the tiger. Lionesses have other pride members to protect cubs and to help hunt. If a lioness dies the pride will usually continue to provide for her cubs.
A tigress lacks this benefit and the cubs are at the mercy of any predator that wanders past. Some of the animals that would attack a cub are jackals, hyenas, wild dogs and the python.
