7. Mating Habits
Along with other sharks, in order to mate, male tiger sharks have to bite onto the female sharks in order to keep them still and once they have them they will float to the bottom and begin mating.
Luckily, female sharks are able to survive from these bites where as other animals would die.

He has traveled over miles.

His last ping was January 10.

16. Tiger Shark Preservation
Mass killings of tiger sharks due to fear from humans.
Tiger sharks are near threatened meaning that if the killing continues then they will be endangered.
Although sharks rarely bite humans, the tiger shark is reported to be responsible for a large percentage of fatal shark attacks, and is sometimes regarded as one of the most dangerous shark species. They often visit shallow reefs, harbors, and canals, creating the potential for encounter with humans. It is found in many tropical and temperate waters, and it is especially common around central Pacific islands. Its name derives from the dark stripes down its body which resemble a tiger's pattern, which fade as the shark matures.[5]

The main way to save the tiger sharks would be to stop the mass killings at the hand of man.
