Tigers are carnivorous felines that live mainly in Siberia and several parts of Africa. They are extremely dangerous, especially when they are hungry or feel threatened. Yet in animated films, they are seen as cheerful, lively animals. This is particularly true of Kung Fu Panda and Winnie the Pooh.
Tigger is a friend of Winnie in the Winnie the Pooh cartoon. He is often cheerful and very energetic, which makes him very clumsy without thinking about the consequences of his blunders. His favourite activity is jumping around in the forest and on the way to his friends’ houses. He often argues with Coco Lapin because he destroys his garden.
But despite his little faults, Tigger’s friends are always there for him. When he tries to find his family to invite them to his birthday party, his friends are there to comfort him when they discover that Tigger hasn’t managed to find them.
Master Tigress, a kung fu master in Kung Fu Panda, is also a very happy feline. She comes from the Bao Gu orphanage where she was very unhappy because none of the children wanted to play with her. Tigress is called a monster by her friends. She is then taken in by Master Shifu, who teaches her to control her strength. He took her to his temple to train her further. It then became one of the five cyclones.
Master Tigress is by far one of the strongest and bravest of the kung fu masters. She is hard-working, fearless and loyal to Po and the Dragon Warrior.
Tiger characters in animated films therefore represent happy, strong and courageous personalities. Let your child become as strong as these tigers. Give them tiger colouring pages that you can download and print for free.
