If you were to shave a tiger, the bold black stripes would still be visible, perfectly matching the pattern of the coat. That’s because the pigments that create the stripes are present in the skin itself, not only in the hair.
Each tiger’s stripe pattern is unique, much like a human fingerprint. These stripes serve as powerful camouflage, breaking up the animal’s outline in tall grass and dappled light, making it nearly invisible to both prey and rivals.

The GPS ban is surprising. Pretty sure there are like a billion smartphones in India that have GPS receivers which technically makes them GPS devices.
