Detailed explanation-1: -What Is the Average Lifespan of Tigers? The average lifespan of a tiger in the wild is a maximum of about 15 years. Every two years, female tigers have between two and four cubs. The cubs have a difficult time surviving and roughly 50 percent only live for two years.
Detailed explanation-2: -How long do tigers live? Tigers have been known to live to the age of 26 in the wild. Female tigers give birth to two to four cubs at a time, on average, and can do so every two years. Survival is difficult for cubs; about half of all cubs do not live more than two years.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tigers have been known to reach up to 20 years of age in the wild. Males of the larger subspecies, the continental tiger, may weigh up to 660 pounds. For males of the smaller subspecies-the Sunda tiger-the upper range is at around 310 pounds.
