Golden tabby tigers need many things to survive, as well as they need to do many things to survive. This would be true if golden tabby tigers still lived in the wild, but they do not, so just imagine that they do. A golden tabby tiger might have to venture far and wide to get a good meal. And if a golden tabby tiger were to encounter a large male animal, it might attack, if not, it will outrun the animal for a short distance, climb a tree, or swim to safety. If the tiger knows that the large male animal is too strong to fight, it will normally go for a baby of the animal, but must have a strategy to get past the mother and father as well. Golden tabby tigers, as well as all tigers, have stripes. These stripes are to help a tiger blend in, they are a tiger's camouflage.
