It goes without saying that humans are fascinated by tigers. You needn’t look beyond Tony the Tiger, Hobbes from Calvin and Hobbes, Tigger from Winnie The Pooh, and Rajah from Disney’s Aladdin, just some of the most famous tigers in pop culture, as proof. From Tony’s infectious energy (probably from all that frosting on those flakes!) to Tigger’s adorable love of whimsey and friends, tigers have been personified as fierce but beloved animals. Much of that is because even as children we are captivated by their natural beauty and strength. Like lions and cheetahs, these ferocious felines sit on top of the food chain, but unlike them, they don’t form complex social and familial structures. They’re also the largest cat species in the world, so there’s that fun fact for your kiddo.

If you have a future zoologist on your hands who loves all things tigers, we went ahead and rounded up the absolute best tiger jokes and puns to bring the laughs. And in the words for the adorable Tigger, “Consider yourself pounced!”
